<p><em>Update: Contrary to reporting, I&#8217;m not &#8220;overseeing Twitter&#8217;s products&#8221;. I&#8217;ll be a product manager. One of many people contributing to Twitter&#8217;s future.</em></p>
<p>A couple of weeks ago, I announced that I had left <a href="http://raptr.com">Raptr</a> to explore other options. Raptr was an incredible experience for me and I learned a lot there. I watched and helped the company grow from 8 people to the near 30 it is now. (They&#8217;re <a href="http://raptr.com/info/jobs">hiring</a> for more, by the way.)</p>
<p>At Raptr, I took on more roles and responsibilities than I have ever had before in my professional life. The team that I left behind consists of some of the most talented people I know whom I hope to work with again in the future. I have a little bit of insight into what&#8217;s coming for Raptr and, believe me, if you play any videogames, the service is going to be even better than it already is.</p>
<p>But for me, it was time to take my newfound skills and apply them to new challenges.</p>
<p>Today, I signed an offer letter from Twitter. I&#8217;ll be a product manager there working primarily on the web client. As you might guess from my Twitter username (<a href="http://twitter.com/k">@k</a>), I&#8217;m a pretty big fan of theirs and see a lot of potential for the medium next year—for that&#8217;s what it is; a medium, not a service.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m looking forward to what&#8217;s ahead …<br /> <a title="Twitter Offer Cover Page by kev/null, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kurioso/4203871243/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2598/4203871243_4fcb6153cf_o.png" alt="Twitter Offer Cover Page" width="499" height="620" /></a></p>
