has word that UGO has purchased Ziff Davis' 1Up division, a move that has been
rumored for a while now, and true to other rumors, print magazine
EGM is not part of the deal, and is discontinued following the January, 2009
issue. They also have word that some 30 layoffs immediately followed the deal,
and the article offers proud quotes from UGO high command, as well as a copy of
an internal Ziff Davis email announcing the move and outlining plans for the
future. For the record, UGO places the advertising on this website.
Not that it's any of our business Blue, but did UGO buy this site, or do you just have a business agreement with them?
Just a business agreement for the ads.
I generally don't parse words, which is why I said "UGO places the advertising on this website." If UGO owned Blue's News, I would come out and say so.
