Mashable Names New Deputy Editor, Expands Tech Coverage Team




Mashable has named Chris Taylor its new Deputy Editor and is enhancing its tech coverage with two new team members.

Taylor joined Mashable in January as San Francisco Bureau Chief and has proven himself as an insightful editor and leader. He will now oversee the development of reporters, while working closely with Mashable’s editor-in-chief to select, develop and coordinate news coverage across the site. Taylor, who goes by the Twitter handle @FutureBoy, will continue to contribute a wide range of original reporting on technology, gadgets, social media tools and companies and more.

An award-winning journalist, Taylor’s impressive resume includes FastCompany.com, Fortune Small Business, Business 2.0, CNN Money and Time Magazine, where he served as San Francisco bureau chief and covered the early days of Google, the iPod, the Xbox and Netflix.

In his new role, Taylor, will continue to expand our coverage of technology and gadgets, as well as the platforms, people and companies that drive innovation in this space.

Mashable is also enhancing its tech news coverage team with the addition of Tech Reporter Samantha Murphy and Tech Analyst and Contributor Pete Pachal.

Murphy comes to Mashable from Tech News Daily where, as senior staff writer, she reported on technology for Laptop Magazine and LiveScience.

Pachal’s an industry vet who served as Editor of SyFy’s Dvice.com and, most recently, was PCMag.com’s news director.
