And, like Dave, I may ironically end up covering Sling *less*. Since I work there now it could be a conflict of interest to cover rumors, etc. It might seem like my posting a rumor is confirming it, and it might not make management happy if I repeat incorrect info. There shouldn't be a problem posting about official announcements, or when Sling pops up in the news, etc. Though I may be bringing on guest bloggers who wouldn't have a conflict of interest.John G - A small company in Marlborough, MA - <a href="http://www.cyphermint.com/" rel="nofollow">Cyphermint, Inc.</a> I was there over five years, from November 11, 2002 until March 28, 2008. Thanks everyone!

Ironically, I blog <i>much</i> less about Sling now too. I'm hoping with the move behind me and not too many show/trips ahead of me (so far) that I can crank up my post frequency. TiVo might also help by releasing some new stuff for me to cover... ;) Congrats, Megazone – glad to be working with you ion the other side, too. :)

I hope this isn't taken the wrong way, but I hope your new job with sling doesn't cause you to lose interest and write about TiVo. I am not trying to take a shot or jab at Dave Zatz, because I respect the work he has done with his blog. But i have noticed an extreme reduction in writings about TiVo since he landed his job with sling.Anyway, congrats! Jack Congrats on the new job!
