Everyone,
It's my pleasure to welcome Joe Matazzoni to the Editing department as the new product manager for the Collaboration team from today. Joe will help the team develop aligned with the needs of our editors, prioritizing and shaping the improvements we're making to notifications, watchlists, change tracking, discussions and more. He replaces Danny Horn, who is now helping the Community Tech team.
Joe has had a long career in digital publishing and media, particularly in public broadcasting, first at NPR, where he helped rebuild the Web site and then founded the Arts & Life section, and more recently at KQED, where he created an Emmy-winning arts video team. Joe has a master’s degree in interactive telecommunications from NYU and a background in UX design. He was the director of UX at the Wall Street Journal, where he helped lead a complete site and CMS redesign and relaunch.
After many years in New York and DC, Joe is delighted to be back in his native Bay Area. He's a big reader, enjoys biking and swimming and likes to dabble in the kitchen. He will be based in the office, which he plans to commute to via the ferry from Marin, where he lives with his wife and 11-year-old son. Joe will be on IRC and of course on-wiki as [[User:JMatazzoni (WMF) https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:JMatazzoni_(WMF)]].
Welcome, Joe!
Yours,
Good, more people with video experience and from WSJ. (:
I personally think we should look into poaching more talent from WSJ. I like their infographics, and we seem to have a very capable new hire in Comms who also worked for WSJ.
Welcome, Joe.

I hope he has at least some experience with the projects. We are in desperate need of someone who is deeply rooted into the community to clean up the Flow mess. Good luck.

Yours,
My impression is that Lila has taken an interest in Flow, partially influenced by the discussions on her talk page on Meta. I do hope that Joe will have the time for a careful review of the situation with Flow so that we can get some kind of resolution and then move on to other matters for collaboration improvements such as enhancements to Echo and cross-wiki collaboration tools.
