I’ve Tweeted it, Facebooked it, and IM’d it, so now that I’m blogging it I guess it’s official: I am no longer associate editor at techPresident and Personal Democracy Forum, and this week is my first full week as managing editor at Change.org.
It’s an exciting move. I get to work with Ben Rattray and co. to build up a social action blog network (and to help define what the heck that means), and to work on a project that I’ve admired from the start. It’s a bittersweet move from the PdF world, but I know I’ll be in close contact with those folks.
And to help celebrate, Sarah Stirland at Wired wrote a profile of the switch! It includes this pullout quote:
Congrats on your new adventure!
Joshua,
Congratulations!
As the Executive Director for the Ellensburg (Washington)Downtown Association , I have just recently discovered change.org ,and while I’m not sure I fully understand its potential yet, I am excited to see how this new tool can reshape the philanthropic and non profit community.
Congratulations on the new adventure.
Timothy Bishop, CMSM
Ellensburg Downtown Association
Thanks folks for the nice wishes! I’ll keep you all updated.
