It feels weird to try and muster my usual breed of rambling enthusiasm this morning. The sale of 1UP and the shuttering of EGM feels like the end of an era to me. Moment of silence then, I guess.
Adam Rosenberg, who's done freelance at UGO, extracted 1UP editorial director Sam Kennedy's post from the chaos at NeoGAF and put it on his blog -- it's nice to read what Sam has to say on the situation and what he hopes the future can still bring.
I actually only knew a few people over on the 1UP staff, so I don't claim to be especially close to the situation, but it's of course tough to hear that career peers of mine had to lose their jobs, and I wish everyone a quick and secure landing. This is tough news for everyone in our line of work and we'll be thinking of you guys.
Any thoughts/wishes readers want to share?
UPDATE: Another impactful perspective worth sharing from Jeff "Greenspeak" Green.
