This week on kottke.org: Choire Sicha

Fresh off his exit from Gawker and covering last week’s New Hampshire primary for the New York Observer, Choire Sicha will be handling a slightly easier, less glamourous, and potentially more spiritually rewarding job: editing kottke.org for the next week.

Choire has written for Gawker (on two non-consecutive occasions, making him Gawker Media’s Grover Cleveland), the NY Times, the Observer, and a host of other publications, but I remember him mostly from from the olden days of the blogosphere. He was one half of the tandem that wrote the now-defunct East/West, an early blog detailing the lives of two friends who live on opposite ends of the US. He’s also done a bunch of other stuff but I’ll let him share or not share about all that. Welcome, Choire!
