Marshall Kirkpatrick Joins RWW as VP Content Development
I'm very pleased to announce that Marshall Kirkpatrick has joined ReadWriteWeb in a full-time capacity, as our new Vice President of Content Development. The grand title reflects Marshall's senior position within ReadWriteWeb, where he will be responsible for driving a lot of our upcoming content developments. These include premium content, publishing system enhancements, and more magic things. Marshall will also continue to be ReadWriteWeb's Lead Writer, so don't worry his writing isn't taking a backseat at all. He will be going full-time at RWW sometime over the next couple of weeks.
Since starting with us as Lead Writer back in September '07, Marshall has helped ReadWriteWeb become the 9th most linked to blog in the world (according to Technorati). With Marshall on board full-time, I'm excited about RWW continuing its strong growth and rocking the tech news world even more!

Rock on!!!!!!!
Marshall is a prolific and analytical writer in our industry, a good move.
I always thought he was full time, at RWW, either way, he's fantastic.
Congrats, Marshall! RWW just keeps getting better. FTW!
Super duper congratulations to Marshall, the RWW team, and Mikalina!
Great success on all fronts. :)
great, the next level demands brains, vision, attitude, and guts... he covers all of that
RWW is one of the few blogs I would actually consider paying for premium content. In the last couple months you have set a strong standard for meaningful content that looks beyond the blogosphere. The choice to do things like look at "main stream" sites had been a strong move toward becoming a better resource for the business of the web rather than just the latest cool thing. Its encouraging to see a hiring strategy behind this. Congrats.
Congrats Marshall. You are a rock star and you always provide the best analysis. Keep growing the RWW. Jobe well done and best wishes.
Very cool!
Congrats Marshall, Richard, and the whole team at my favorite blog.
Congrats to Marshall and RWW. RWW is lucky to have Marshall's full time attention :)
Congratulations to Marshall and to you Richard, this is really good news!
great, the next level demands brains, vision, attitude, and guts... he covers all of that
Congratulatiions Marshall and RWW team.
Congratulations Marshall, and a great move by RWW. Keep up the insightful posting.
I hope this involves a healthy pay rise ;-) Congrats, Marshall. I really appreciated your support throughout the whole Feed Digest era and enjoy your relentless energy here on RWW!
