Yes, the now infamous "AOL Way" appears to be working; but not in the way Tim Armstrong envisioned. Nilay makes the third member of the Engadget podcast team to leave in a matter of weeks. Engadget has essentially lost its heart.

It would appear that the AOL way may just have led to AOL's worst nightmare. It is game on. Bring it!!!!
