Change is in the air
As of Friday, March 5, 2005, I am no longer an employee of Avenue A | Razorfish. It was one of the most difficult decisions I have made in my lifetime, but I hope it will be one of the most fruitful ones also.
I am leaving to join Moonstorm Mobile with Preston and his business partner, Brent. I feel these guys have hit on an idea that could change the world of mobile. That kind of responsibility is exactly what I was looking for, so I was jazzed to accept their offer.
Let me rephrase that: I was beside myself with joy to accept their offer! It took me a day to scream, but I got there. :)
Of course, there is a downside to every change, and that downside is that I will essentially be disappearing from my previously diverse and rich social scene. Ten- to twelve-hour days, plus a 1-hour (or more) commute each way are going to swallow it all whole. But I think it's all going to be worth it to work on such a cool project, and to work directly with a close friend.
I am being tight-lipped about all of this on purpose, as Moonstorm is still in stealth mode. But stay tuned to this space for updates on when I will be announcing to the world the great thing we have been working on six days a week to get done.
And to all my Avenue A | Razorfish friends out there, previous and current, I miss you all.
