I’m sorry to say that Mark Jones, Global Editor for Networked Journalism, will be leaving us at the end of the month. He’s decided to pursue interests in social media and online publishing elsewhere, and we’re going to miss him.
Over the past 13 years, Mark has pioneered most of the social and community initiatives within Reuters News. As Editor of Reuters AlertNet, he built a vibrant, award-winning community of NGOs around humanitarian news. Between 2006 and 2009 on reuters.com, he drove our blogging, live-blogging and micro-blogging in the form of Twitter. As Global Communities Editor, he showed you could get busy, competitive financial market professionals to collaborate in our forums. And more recently, he has helped us develop vital skills in social media news-gathering, particularly in TV.
Mark will be handing over his communities responsibilities to Chris Kaufman while Yann Tessier will take on the development of our social media news-gathering efforts.
Please join me in wishing Mark the best for his future adventures online.
