Heartbroken to hear Om Malik is gone.
GigaOm was one of the first blogs I followed regularly, and then I continued to enjoy his writing on his personal blog, Om.co. His writing made you think differently about tech, about the internet, about what any of it actually meant. In fact, he’s one of the reasons I got into blogging, back in 2007-08.
In 2009, I had the chance to meet him at the first WordCamp India alongside Matt Mullenweg. Brief encounter, but those things stay with you.
Rest well, Om. Your words shaped more careers than you probably knew.
Om Shanti. 🙏🏼
