Changing of the guard

TAGS: None

The winds of change are blowing through InfoWorld's Editorial Team.

First up, I'm outta here! I'm packing the bags and heading home. After almost three years, tomorrow will be my last day at InfoWorld. I've accepted a fantastic opportunity to head back "Down Under" and reconnect with my former employer, IDG Communications Australia, as Deputy Managing Director. My wife and I now have a three month old girl, so it's also an opportunity for us to move back to be with family.

As a result, I'm pleased to announce that InfoWorld's Associate News Editor, Tom Sullivan, will assume my responsibilities as News Editor for both InfoWorld Magazine, and related content on infoworld.com and TechWatch. It's a great promotion for him, and one that's well deserved.

The final piece of news is that Eric Knorr has "officially" joined InfoWorld as Executive Editor at Large. Knorr's well known in the IT media game, and has actually been working with us for a few months now. He's a real asset to the edit team.

I won't name names because invariably you forget someone. But I've worked with so many talented people, and it's good to know that they will remain friends for a long time.

If all goes well, I'll rejoin the tech media blog conversation at some point in 2004. And if you're in Sydney, please look me up - Tom Sullivan has my contact info.

Thanks for the memories!
