MEDIABISTRO.COM HIRES ELIZABETH SPIERS AS EIC

Lifted from the Mediabistro news feed:
Founding editor of Gawker.com and a contributing writer at New York magazine will expand content offerings and relaunch mediabistro.com homepage, incorporating niche media blogs.

What does this mean for Mediabistro? For Ms. Spiers? For so-totally-last-season Gawker? For newyorkmetro.com, who had seemed to forget about Ms. Spiers not long after hiring her? For Laurel, who seemingly was looking to sneak up behind the last EIC, Jesse Oxfeld, and use her feather boa as a garrote?

But most importantly, what does it mean for us bored media-obsessed websurfers at work? Does our content actually improve? I would hope so! That might mean that I could pick up some overtime hours!
