All Things Digital hires additional reporter

All Things Digital, the tech news site run by The Wall Street Journal, has hired Ina Fried to cover the mobile sector.

Kara Swisher writes, “As most people know, she has been at CNET for the past 10 years, most recently covering Microsoft as a senior writer.

“And although she hasn’t been focused solely on mobile, Ina has been covering the area since 2000, when folks like Kyocera were trying to shove a Palm Pilot and a phone together, most recently doing a behind-the-scenes series for CNET on the birth of Windows Phone 7.

“During her time at the tech news site, she also covered Apple for four years and led CNET’s coverage of the Hewlett-Packard-Compaq merger, as well as covering all manner of gadgets from the Palm Pilot to the Audrey (I have no idea what that is, but Walt Mossberg does).

“Before that, she covered the chip industry for financial wire service Bridge News and also worked at the Orange Country Register and Orange County Business Journal.”
