From her post:<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<div>&#8220;WordPress has touched nearly every internet user and changed the lives of countless engineers, writers, and entrepreneurs. WordPress is our shared backbone. The Business of WordPress is thriving and continues to grow rapidly. We believe it\u2019s time that professionals inside and outside the WordPress Community have a reliable and lasting news resource. This is exactly what we are offering with Torque.&#8221;<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div>Also included in TorqueMag are the complete archives of WP Daily, which <a href=\"http:\/\/8bit.io\/goodbye-wpdaily\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">shut down suddenly<\/a> on July 10th. Preparations and work were well underway for Torque at the time. When we heard the news, we knew that it was important that the content of WP Daily be archived and made available for the Community. Every post is contained in the category for <a href=\"http:\/\/torquemag.io\/category\/wp-daily-archives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WP Daily Archives<\/a>.<\/div>\n<p>Torque will maintain editorial independence as a publication. The purpose of the magazine is to connect the rapidly growing WordPress community, from the core &#8220;family&#8221; of us who attend WordCamps together, to the millions of people who produce and consume content on the nearly 70 Million WordPress sites\u00a0on the web.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>[The] vision for Torque includes a fierce sense of editorial independence. We are published by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wpengine.com\/\">WP Engine<\/a>, but I was brought on from the outside in order to spearhead and manage an autonomous publication, not to promote a brand. Torque will not shy away from controversy. Instead, when we feature biased or opinionated pieces, we will always try to represent both sides of an issue.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div>Please visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.torquemag.io\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">torquemag.io<\/a>\u00a0for the first round of articles, and to read the letter to the editor:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/torquemag.io\/introducing-torque-letter-from-the-editor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/torquemag.io\/<wbr \/>introducing-torque-letter-<wbr \/>from-the-editor\/<\/a>.
