TechCrunch has lost its first writer, Paul Carr announcing his departure following Mike Arrington heading off. Let the echo chamber echo! The death of TechCrunch! No. Harmful to TechCrunch? Maybe. Publications don’t just go poof. Believe me. I know. I’ve resigned, restarted, been there & done that. Watching Mike struggle with the loss of his [...]
