Thomas writes, “Change is an eternal current in the worlds of media and technology. When I joined ReadWrite three years ago, it would have been hard to foresee everything the publication’s been through. Yet I went in knowing clearly that almost everything would change and had to change — except for the publication’s duty of service to its readers and its mission to explore, map, and define the programmable world.
“It was just under a year ago that we unveiled the sale of ReadWrite to our new parent company, Wearable World — now known as Wearable IoT World. The company recently raised a new round of funding, and with those resources behind it, I’ll be pleased to see ReadWrite set the conversation about the new world of connected devices for years to come.
“It’s likewise a good time for me to move on to my next steps. I’m not ready to announce what those are yet, although keen observers will know I’ve dropped some pretty good hints over the years. There’s an amazing opportunity ahead of us to redefine how newsrooms work, driven by data, assisted by artificially intelligent bots, and delivering narrative experiences through new mediums such as messaging apps.”
