- IkmoIkmo 8y agoWhat do you mean by relevance here, could you elaborate?
- misterprime 8y agoSorry for the late reply. I don't remember any specific details, but after he returned he was just no longer interesting when he chimed in on the podcast.
- mikestew 8y agoOne would have to walk into that expecting to "lose relevance". I can't think of a 12 month period, save 2001, where checking out for a year would put one much behind on relevance. FB is still FB, Twitter is still Twitter, still arguing about the same shit we argued about thirty years ago on usenet. You will, however, have to learn all new javascript frameworks before you go back to work.
- Apocryphon 8y agoWasn't he from The Verge?
- misterprime 8y agoSorry for the late reply. Yeah, when AOL bought Huffington Post the guys from Engadget left to make "This is my next podcast" and then "The Verge". I miss my Palm Pre, Oreo effect and all.
