Jason Mick wrote more of DailyTech than anyone else. Across roughly a decade he covered the smartphone platform wars, the patent litigation that surrounded them, and a long run of university and laboratory research stories - the kind of work that got DailyTech quoted by science and technology blogs well outside the enthusiast hardware audience.
His copy is the clearest example of the archive's house style: a plain-language explanation of what a paper or filing actually said, the reason it mattered commercially, and a link to the primary document so readers could argue with him in the comments. They frequently did, at length, which he treated as part of the job.
He held the senior editor role through the publication's peak traffic years and its later reduced cadence, and his byline appears on DailyTech articles up to the end of the 2005-2017 period.

Reading this byline
DailyTech articles published between 2005 and 2017 stay credited to the writers who wrote them. Original articles are read through the archived captures of dailytech.com rather than re-hosted here, so the text, date and comment thread stay as published. See the archive record for the year-by-year index.
