First week at Gruden

So for those that noticed the update to my About Me page, I’ve had my first week at Gruden.

It was an interesting and exciting first week, and hopefully a good indicator of things to come. Not much else to say except it seems like I’ll be working with a bunch of great people on a bunch of great technologies in the online space. Pretty much my cup of tea.

End of an era… for me

Or perhaps the title should read “End of my era… at ninemsn“.

It’s been three and a half fruitful, action packed years, and I’ve had an absolute blast, but like all good things it has to come to an end. Tomorrow is my last day as a ninemsn‘er. I’m blessed to be leaving behind an incredibly talented commercial development team full of fantastic people with tremendous energy who will no doubt easily fill the void I leave behind in a matter of minutes. I’ll also be leaving behind some fantastic co-workers in a vibrant workplace that is just generally a nice place to be. You’ll all be missed.

I’ll be starting my new role as the Development Manager at Gruden in a couple of weeks, and am incredibly excited about the opportunities that that journey will present. The guys at Gruden are a fun and energetic bunch, and something tells me I’m going to fit right in there.

In the mean time, I’m probably going to spend a week at home doing absolutely nothing (well gardening anyhow). This will be the first actual break between jobs in almost 10 years, I think.

Goodbye ninemsn, it’s been a great ride.
