That's fantastic news for all involved and fantastic news for this community. Congratulations!
 
Thanks, folks. I'm really looking forward to helping keep MacRumors at the top of the heap when it comes to Apple rumors and news. It will be nice to be able to free arn up a bit to make some improvements both here and in his growing networking of sites. That, and he'll be able to get more than an hour or two of sleep per night...though I doubt he'll take much advantage of that luxury. :)



What was your day job before this?
 
First full time employee! I thought that their already was one or two.

Wonder how big MacRumors could be in 5 or 10 years?
A MacRumors headquarters?
public relations personal,
Advertisement and sales department,
several reporters with press credentials for getting into all the mac events.
No more borrowing feeds from other websites, at mac world or wwdc.:)
 
WC, this is the chap who deals with the hazing rituals at the very highest levels of MacRumors... brace yourself.

Can't wait to see the pictures, feel sorry for the sheep though.

Edit: On second thought, anything that pisses off PETA and makes them boycott the site is fine by me. :p
 
I will add my congratulations to you too, WC

Thanks for all your help over the years!

Woof, Woof - Dawg

Congrats to both of you! I have been seeing "written be WildCowBoy" on more and more articles here and i thought something would come of this ;). Now we can expect many more great articles because MR now will have an even better editorial staff to search for info! Good luck Erik with your new job! :)

Sincerely,
Josh
 
Congrats, WildCowboy. Let me know when the leveraged buyout begins. ;)
 
oh how fast WC has grown up in the MR community! I remember when he was regular member, then appointed a mod and then a god:p

Congrats, hope your efforts make this community even better!
 
Congrats, WC!

If this question has been answered a zillion times already, please accept my apologies. I don't know how to search for it.

With a distributed organization such as MacRumors, have Arn and many/most/all of the mods personally met?
 
Congrats Wild Cowboy!
And congrats to you too Arn, it is quite a feat for a MacRumors as a company to be able to hire people.


Does this mean we will see a redesign sometime? :)
 
What was your day job before this?

I'm just finishing my PhD in biophysics...any day now. :)

With a distributed organization such as MacRumors, have Arn and many/most/all of the mods personally met?

Generally not. Living in the Bay Area, I've had the good fortune to meet arn, blakespot, and longofest when they've come out for Macworld. I've also met devilot, as we live in the same general area. And I just met Doctor Q last week when I was down in his neck of the woods. But that still leaves a lot of staff members who I haven't yet met.
