Over on Twitter, Jemima Kiss pointed to her Guardian post about Caterina Fake’s blog announcement that she’ll be joining New York-based Hunch as Chief Product Officer. Cool — and good on her!
What’s interesting, for everyone who has been wondering whether a move away from the Bay Area is in the cards for Caterina and husband Stewart Butterfield, is that although Fake expects to spend a lot of time in NYC, she won’t be moving there. She — therefore presumably they — will be staying put in San Francisco.
Alas, this will put the lid on the hope that the dynamic duo (Fake and Butterfield, co-founders of formerly Vancouver-based Flickr) would opt to live north of the 49th parallel once again.
I bet more than a few people are now waiting to find out what Stewart Butterfield will do next.
Perhaps something with moving images? He’s a speaker at XMediaLab upcoming (Aug.1) “DIY TV” conference in Melbourne, Australia. There’s probably plenty of tin still to be worked in the movies…
edit: for some reason I wrote Aug.9 instead of Aug.1 for that DIY TV conference. Just corrected the date. It is Aug.1, tomorrow.
