I wanted to drop everyone a quick note and let you know that I will no longer be part of Team Gather. My time at Gather has been an amazing experience and it has been a complete blast getting to know and work with so many Gatherers.
As I leave Team Gather, I will be re-joining the Gather community, both as an individual and as a new member of the John Edwards for President Team. I had the opportunity to work at Gather before our Politics Essential existed, up through our 2006 blogging competition and now I look forward to participating in all that Gather plans to offer for the 2008 election cycle – albeit from a whole new perspective.
Over the next few months I will be looking to build a strong team of community and thought leaders across a wide range of social networks. Gather members are some of the most engaged and politically inclined people online so I plan on spending a lot of time in the community during the coming months.
I look forward to re-joining the conversation!

Good luck to you and the Edwards campaign.
It has been a pleasure and an honor working with you. Thank you for all your spirit, creativity, hard work and determination. I will miss you and I know Gather will miss you too. The Edwards campaign just got a lot stronger. Wishing you nothing but great success in this exciting new chapter of your career!

"Gather is centralized, while the ideal Media 2.0 is decentralized — but to their credit, Gather is trying to make the network a player in Presidential Politics — John Edwards is there. "
Kinda backhanded, dontcha think?

I was at the New Hampshire debates last week, and met Elizabeth Edwards.
She was real nice.
By the way, Gather was the reason I was at both debates!
