Net Art News now Rhizome News

Dear Rhizome Readers,

I'm writing with excitement to announce that we've just changed the name
of Net Art News to Rhizome News.

You may recall that I posed the question of a name change to you, last
Fall. We wanted to change it because the editorial focus of Net Art News
had expanded to cover a more diverse range of new media practices, both
online and offline, in order to offer a more accurate and supportive
reflection of the field.

Anyway, I'd like to thank those of you who made suggestions for the name
change. As I recall, the discussion was as entertaining and witty as it
was an interesting register of our community's shared vocabulary and
passion.

The name change, itself, took a bit longer than anticipated to roll into
effect because we wanted to get past the challenges of implementing an
ambitious redesign and training a new Director of Technology.

But in any case, we're Rhizome News now! Thanks, again, for your input and
ongoing support. While I've got your attention, let me point you to our
many feed & syndication options:

All the best,
Marisa

a good change IMHO, makes sense in a number of ways.
