Ever since AOL bought the Huffington Post , one group of high-profile bloggers at our sister site Engadget (AOL also owns TechCrunch) decided they did not like the direction the company was going and left quite vocally. It seemed that every week one of them quit in a huff. Now we know where they went. Eight of those bloggers, led by former editor in chief Joshua Topolsky, are preparing to launch a competing tech blog at SB Nation , which is currently a sports blog network whose CEO, Jim Bankoff, is a former AOL executive.
