This week I’m starting a new role as Editor at Large at Data Center Knowledge, the technology news site I founded back in 2005. With the hiring of a new editor in chief, I’m stepping out of the day-to-day management of the DCK web site and business. This will allow me more time to write, which has always been my first love.
The growth and success of Data Center Knowledge has been amazing. But running a fast-growing online publications can be an immersive experience, placing extraordinary demands on one’s time and focus. When DCK became part of iNET Interactive in 2012, it created the framework to expand the team and bring on other talented journalists and executives to shepherd the site’s next phase of growth.
So what now? As Editor at Large, I’ll have the freedom to focus on telling great stories about the places where the Internet lives, and the folks who are building it. Colleen and I also plan to take some time to travel and relax a bit.
