Paul Maidment, a former co-editor of Forbes who resigned earlier this year, has created a consulting firm called Bystander Media.
The firm, according to this site, provides “strategic planning, editorial change management and content services for new media and traditional publishers.”
Maidment, who resigned from Forbes in June, oversaw its Web operations. He said at the time that he was “ready to advance to the next phase of my life.”
