So long and thanks for all the...
After nine years at the BBC, I've decided to say goodbye to Auntie and to "pursue other opportunities", as is sometimes said.
I've had three wonderful years running the technology section, interviewed some of the biggest names in the business and covered some of the best stories.
I leave dot.life in the capable hands of Rory Cellan-Jones and Maggie Shiels. And in the crack online tech team, they'll continue to write the day-to-day journalism because they recognise how important the subject area is.
As author Carl Sagan once said:
"We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology."
For those who want to stay in touch, you can find me on Twitter.

Hope you enjoy whatever it is you have planned post-Beeb Darren. Can I be a real pain and ask if there's any news on the elusive Sony mystery game?

Seriously though- the tech blog keeps me sane when I'm at work, you'll be missed.

As an American reader, webmaster, and science nerd, I appreciate the work you and your team have done to introduce, explain, and otherwise educate us about the technology that is the backbone of modern civilization.
Good luck!

The game was The Last Guardian.
I leave it to you to make judgement on how you feel about the way it has been reported by the BBC.
Don't get me wrong Ico is an amazing game. Shadow was OK and I'm glad it looks like the format of The Last Guardian will go back to Ico (cannot wait!!!!) but with intro of a Shadow scale type Colossus's! Going to be a great adventure.
