My podcasting partner Niall Kennedy is leaving Technorati, and is seeking newer pastures. He made the quasi-announcement when we recorded the latest episode of Om and Niall PodSessions. (You can download it here.) I hope it works out for him, and well if you are looking for someone who knows a thing or two about RSS, Web 2.0 and communities, well he is your man.

I will be a free agent on March 1. I joined Technorati in February 2005 excited about changing the world of weblogs and introducing people to a new kind of search. Almost a year later my passions at work have eroded and it’s time to find new horizons. Valentines Day is the perfect time to rekindle lost flames.
