A big change was announced last night, TechCrunch has a CEO, ex Fox Interactive acquisitions director, Heather Harde.  Permalink to this paragraph

The amazing thing is that TechCrunch has a CEO. Permalink to this paragraph

What started as a labor of love by my friend Mike Arrington, a man with a hidden gift for quickly grokking the value in a myriad of web projects, and a deep genuine passion for entrepreneurship, had become first a juggernaut, then a nascent empire, and now shows signs of becoming a for-real empire that harkens back to the heyday of Pat McGovern and Bill Ziff. Permalink to this paragraph

I met Heather briefly at Gnomedex last August in Seattle. I know Mike has had his eye on her for a long time. I'm glad he's getting to focus on content, and can only imagine what they have in store. Along with everyone else, I look forward to watching this story unfold. Permalink to this paragraph
