RIP Om Malik

Sad news indeed.

I traded emails with Om many years ago, it was no doubt on the topic of the nascent blogging boom that was happening at the time, and whilst I don’t recall the specifics, I do remember the kind consideration.

Always a sensible voice, there was a balance to his writing, a gentle worldliness, that I always enjoyed.

My thoughts are with his friends and family.

One response to “RIP Om Malik”

  1. Been trying to recall what those emails were about. I think I emailed him about how he managed to stay across things and find inspiration. His response included comment about my site (at the time called SoMeTHiNG) and a suggestion to remain individual in my approach.

    I can recall that much because it was the early days of blogging and I was trying to find a “place” without copying others. I don’t think I’d mentioned that. Kind and insightful.
