A few days ago I wrote a goodbye post to Examiner.com. I said I had an informal interview within hours of my first social network blast. That company was Trellon. We spent the next week getting to know each other by voice, through IRC, and Skype. A couple of friends who I have worked with in the past vouched for me. Over the course of that week a good rapport built between myself and the Trellon leadership.

It is my great pleasure to being joining the team later this month as Chief Technology Officer - work that I had essentially adopted while at Examiner.com. I'm looking forward to the challenge - and I'll be writing a post in the near future about the job itself.

I want to thank everybody who pitched in to help me in my job search. Your warmth and support was amazing. Network - YOU KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK. A special thank-you goes to Morbus Iff who made the introductions.

Finally, thanks Trellonauts! I'm thrilled.
