I'm happy to announce that I'm joining Macworld, so you'll find my articles there from now on.

Macworld is literally part of Apple's history. Not only have they been around since 1984, but they were also behind Macworld Expo – where Apple announced many of their products, including the first iPhone.

It's such an honor to be part of this team.
