One of my favorite bloggers has been picked up by one of the big names in blogging today. Blogging friend Steven Hodson can be found blogging on Mashable in addition to his own blog, WinExtra.

Steven has a knack for bringing a practical approach to all this newfangled technology and sharing stuff. He’ll tell you that he’s “a cranky old fart wandering the Internet causing mayhem as he goes”, but I know better. He’s a knowledgeable blogger who’s not afraid to point out some of the silliness that we think is import in web 2.0, and also shares useful ideas for making it better.

So congratulations Steven! I have long believed that it was only a matter of time before one of the bigger blogs snapped him up to write for them.  Check out his first “official post” as a blogger for Mashable.
