Ex-Businessweek writer joins All Things Digital

Arik Hesseldahl, who covered Apple and other technology stories for Bloomberg Businessweek magazine, has been hired to be a tech reporter for All Things Digital, the Wall Street Journal’s tech site.

Kara Swisher of All Things Digital writes, “Thus, we turned to Arik, who has a long history covering a wide range of beats in tech.

“He’s most recently been working for Bloomberg Businessweek, where for five years he covered it all: PCs, consumer electronics and semiconductors.

“He was also the third person to write Businessweek.com’s popular ‘Byte of the Apple’ column, and contributed to a companion blog of the same name.

“Before joining Businessweek, Arik spent five years at Forbes.com, covering pretty much every aspect of tech, writing a daily column called ‘Ten O’Clock Tech,’ a daily survey of a single new tech product that predated properties like Engadget and Gizmodo.”
