This is a joke, right? Since Nick Douglas was unceremoniously booted from the tech gossip rag, it’s pretty much gone down the toilet.

First off, the new layout is, well… it’s God awful. The courier-esque font that’s plastered all over the site makes my brain hurt, and the snot-green font color could only appeal to fans of the Garbage Pail Kids or maybe booger enthusiasts.

The reporting? With Douglas gone, it lacks that socio-maniacal humor that followers of Valleywag have come to know and love. Now it’s just little more than grudge-mongering slam pieces aimed at those determined as enemy combatants by the ‘wag. Where’s the fun in that? Make fun of EVERYONE, that’s how Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert have built a satirical media empire!

Finally, we come to the new logo

It reminds me of a heart monitor, except that a more accurate representation would look like a flatline.

Is there a doctor in the house?
