As some readers of this blog know, I am stepping down as Editor-in-Chief of ThreeMinds. Today is my last day at Organic.It's been a great five year run. In many ways my career here took off as I became more involved with ThreeMinds. There are amazing synergies between coalescing my random thoughts into cogent posts and bringing a strong point of view on digital marketing to clients.
Marta Strickland, a senior strategist in our Detroit office, will be stepping in as the new Editor. In addition to being a prolific author on this blog and Recently Consumed, Marta is a forward-thinking technologist with a keen interest in social media and the semantic web. With your help, she and the rest of the team will taking ThreeMinds to the next level.
I want to thank everyone for their readership and their participation in ThreeMinds. It's been a very rewarding process for me and I have learned a great deal from all of you. I first worked here as an MBA intern more than eight years ago, and Organic and ThreeMinds will always have a place in my heart.
The next step for me is to work on the broader challenge of experience design. I will be building the Strategy practice at Method, a design studio that focuses on bringing innovative products and services to market. You'll be seeing more of my thoughts on design, digital marketing, and the customer experience there.

Thanks for the well wishes all. Marta is going to be great. Filippo, I think you're stuck in an older way of thinking about the relationship between a company and its employees, particularly in the services industry. There are no hard feelings any way round, just an opportunity to grow. And there is plenty of precedent for transparency in what's next, from Organic's former CEO to Charlene Li and Peter Kim of Forrester, both of whom resigned on Friday and talked openly about their plans.

I read this first in Google Reader and missed out on the awesome image. Any way we can include images in RSS feeds around here?
