New York Magazine hires Herrman to cover tech

John Herrman

New York Magazine has hired John Herrman to cover technology, the tech industry, digital culture, and the ways all are combining to change us as individuals and as a society.

He was most recently at the New York Times, where he served as a David Carr Fellow and reported on Twitter’s quest to become a platform for everyone and everything; Amazon’s many “pseudo brands”; and tried to answer the question of who’s watching your porch, with Amazon’s ring of surveillance.

Previously, he was co-editor of The Awl and editor of BuzzFeed’s technology section. Early in his career, he was a writer and editor at Gizmodo and Popular Mechanics.
