The Crossword Puzzle, Minus The Pencil

buzzfeed.com

It was bound to happen someday: an online news source now offers a crossword puzzle.

We're still trying to figure out how to fill it in without mucking up the screen. 

But Buzzfeed hired 22-year-old Caleb Madison to edit its puzzles, in a typically hip and snarky Buzzfeed style. 

Caleb visits to talk about his new job, along with Michael Sharp, who critiques The New York Times puzzles on his blog as "Rex Parker Does the New York Times Crossword Puzzle."
