CNET has purchased Esther Dyson’s newsletter and conference business, and will involve Dyson as an “editor at large.” CNET’s portfolio includes News.com, ZDNet, GameSpot, mySimon and the Computer Shopper magazine–Dyson;s business adds an access point to executives and a small conference business.
As one of the people who is constantly trying new technologies–and advising and investing in new, often early-stage, companies, Dyson has provided much momentum to innovations–hopefully, this acquisition will give her more time to focus on that role (and to have some fun, as well.)
