Between Hacker News and Quora I may never do anything productive again. Still, much as I love Quora for its salon-esque feel, there are a few things about using it that really grate.

Good news, everyone! Starting in January, I’ll be joining Richard Wand‘s Experience Design team at EMC Consulting as a user experience architect.
It’s an incredibly exciting opportunity and I can’t wait to start. Big thanks to Johanna Kollman for introducing me to Rich and to Michelle Flynn for her exceptional professionalism in the conversation that led to this decision.
You know, it’s funny how things turn and turn again. I first got to know EMC as a technology journalist in Johannesburg. Thanks to the power of the internet, I even managed to dig up my last interview with Mike Ruettgers, shortly before he vacated the CEO’s seat for Joe Tucci in 2001.
Reading that piece with the perspective of ten years, it’s astonishing how the far tech has advanced. But the principle of disruption in the name of progress and excellence remains fresh and relevant. It’s alive and thriving at EMC Consulting and that is why I’m so happy to join the team.
