A Technorati turn
As is often the case, when I’m not posting a lot here I’m off bustling and hustling on other webby things. Of course, there are periods of severe laziness as well, but who’s not guilty of that once in a while?
The last few months have seen a lot of exciting developments, not least of which is that I’m the blogging channel editor at Technorati these days. So not only am I reunited with my old crew at Blogcritics (I joined Blogcritics in ‘04, became Executive Producer and co-owner until I left in the fall of ‘07, and Blogcritics was acquired by Technorati the following year, making this an achingly long and perhaps award-winning in-parentheses addendum!), I’m also amped to be working with the Technorati crew, who are all very very cool as well.
The timing was lucky in that I got to participate in the annual State of the Blogosphere report by doing a bunch of interviews with bloggy experts and influencers, and have been writing a good bit, editing, and strategizing on social media promotion. It’s been a fun time, and am very excited to see how far we can take our new original content effort.
I was going to link to a bunch of the pieces I’ve written over there but instead I’ll just highlight interviews with Steve Rubel and Penelope Trunk for SOTB, and a few “blog focus” columns that I’ve run, such as on the Twitter Lists widget, malware scam that scammed Gawker Media, and the Cheezburger Network Empire.
Here’s my profile page if you’d like to check out more. I’ll try to repost things over here as time allows, and fire up my Posterous operation again, which has gone into the weeds of late I’m afraid.
