A note from Nick Douglas

Douglas-2It's traditional for an exiting Gawker Media editor to write a farewell post. I don't have anything to get across, other than that I'm free for lunch and gig offers for the next few weeks, so I'll just thank the people who, as my friend Paul put it, "write Valleywag for free."

Thanks to everyone who clued me in and wrote the jokes for me, especially Paul Boutin, Chris Nolan, Owen Thomas, Kevin Marks, Scott Beale, and Eran Globen.

Thanks to Valleywag writer Megan McCarthy, who won't be leaving the tech gossip circuit any time soon.

Thanks to the commenters — who, I see, haven't let up this week — especially BlackJack, and except for ResearchZilla.

And thanks to my readers and tipsters, many of whom violated NDAs, company policy, and the sanctity of the men's room in service of gossip. Please do the same for my successor, so I can keep reading this site.

I guess what I really mean to say is — I prefer Italian, maybe a little sushi, and if you want any gossip about Nick Denton you'll have to pony up for some wine.
