      Well done to him.
      
      Now we know why Maven acquired Hubpages. They needed someone who knew one end of the internet from the other.

      That is excellent news.  Paul was only obligated to stay with Maven for 3 years, so I feared that once he left things would change dramatically.  Now those fears are gone.  Maven has done an excellent job for us and kudos to Paul for joining up with them.  Up Up and Awayyyyyyyy!!!

      Congrats to Paul.  This is great news for him and for us hubbers.  I've been worried what would happen to HubPages when his three years was up.  We can all relax now and concentrate on writing.

      You read my mind. Per the original acquisition agreement, the guy now in charge has a vested interest in our success.

   Maybe I am late to the party; I often am.  Here is another Maven article from earlier this month regarding the acquisition of Sports Illustrated.

   Absolutely wonderful news Paul. Congratulations.
   This has washed all my foreboding feelings away.
   
   I think it's in order to also say "congrats hubbers".
