So long and thanks for all the...

After nine years at the 大象传媒, I've decided to say goodbye to Auntie and to "pursue other opportunities", as is sometimes said.
I've had three wonderful years running the technology section, interviewed some of the biggest names in the business and covered some of the best stories.
I leave dot.life in the capable hands of Rory Cellan-Jones and Maggie Shiels. And in the crack online tech team, they'll continue to write the day-to-day journalism because they recognise how important the subject area is.
As author Carl Sagan once said:
"We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology."

The game was The Last Guardian.
I leave it to you to make judgement on how you feel about the way it has been reported by the 大象传媒.
Don't get me wrong Ico is an amazing game. Shadow was OK and I'm glad it looks like the format of The Last Guardian will go back to Ico (cannot wait!!!!) but with intro of a Shadow scale type Colossus's! Going to be a great adventure.
