I talk with my guys at 9rules a lot about the big picture. Right now many people see 9rules as a blog network, however we never really saw it as that even when we dreamed the idea up about one year ago. We’re moving our way towards building a community of the most brilliant people on the web — whether they’re businesswomen, designers, developers, entrepreneurs, technologists, scientists, or anyone else. Forget the concept of just a blog network, 9rules is now a place that can build on the combined talents of our massive community. Anyway, back to the big picture 🙂

New 9rules Community Director
I’m very pleased to announce that the 9rules team and I have brought on the brilliant Tyme White to be our new Community Director. As many of you know, 9rules has been growing more rapidly the past month or so (we’re now at around 150 members) and our private 9rules member forums are now reaching 100+ posts per day, so with the rest of our responsibilities it was just very difficult to keep up with the goings on inside 9rules, and that’s where Tyme White comes in.
We’re very excited to have her aboard, not only because she has given us some great business advice in the past, but also because she successfully ran an extremely large online gaming community a few years back so she knows precisely what she’s talking about. Welcome Tyme!
