# On to SiliconAngle and a Thanks to ReadWriteWeb

After 18 months at [ReadWriteWeb](http://readwriteweb.com), I’ve decided to move on to a new job covering enterprise for [SiliconAngle](http://siliconangle.com), the fast growing blog and video network founded by[John Furrier](http://siliconangle.com/blog/author/john/) and now closely aligned with [Wikibon](http://wikibon.org/), co-founded by[David Vellante](http://wikibon.org/wiki/v/David_Vellante_member_spotlight). The decision did not come without a bit of heartache. I loved the work at ReadWriteWeb, building [RWCloud](http://readwritweb.com/cloud), [RWEnterprise](http://readwritweb.com/enterprise) and [RWHack](http://readwritweb.com/hack).

These channels grew significantly for a number of reasons:

- ReadWriteWeb is an institution. I feel honored to have had the chance to work there. RWW’s credibility provided the channels with a foundation for success.
- Rapid change in the enterprise. Let’s see…big data; the API movement; mobile; platforms - the list goes on.
- Disruption. Blogs continue to disrupt. The IT media world is not immune. The media landscape is changing.
- Developers. To borrow from [RedMonk](http://redmonk.com), developers are the new kingmakers.

My new role at SiliconAngle will mean a few things:

- Launching new initiatives to better cover the enterprise world.
- Curating, curating, curating.
- More researching and writing. There’s a deeper analyst role in the work.
- Video - Have you seen [The Cube](http://siliconangle.tv)?
- Out in the community - getting to events, bringing The Cube, covering the space.

I especially want to thank:

- [Richard MacManus](http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/author/richard-macmanus.php), the visionary founder of ReadWriteWeb.
- [Sean Ammirati](http://www.readwriteweb.com/about_sean.php) - who I can’t say enough about in his role at ReadWriteWeb.
- [Marshall Kirkpatrick](http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=5&sqi=2&ved=0CFoQFjAE&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.readwriteweb.com%2Fabout_marshall.php&ei=ZqDuTevkII6qsAPMzZWABw&usg=AFQjCNG-wybS4Zdniq5zaSJmZO45pcyqOQ) - A leader in the new world of journalism but most of all a good friend.
- My colleague, [Klint Finley](http://www.readwriteweb.com/enterprise/author/klint-finley.php), who writes most of the RWEnterprise and RWHack posts. Klint is one to watch. He’s just getting started.
- All the smart analysts, bloggers and executives who I’ve come to know over the past 18 months.

I am now doing a lot of research and will start to write soon. But the most significant efforts will come in the weeks ahead when we launch our first initiative.

I’ll keep you posted.:)
