Saddened to read one of my favorite tech writers of all time has passed away way too soon. I first discovered Om Malik through Business 2.0 magazine and then followed his blog-turned-empire GigaOm and eventually his most recent blog On my Om.
Om had this way of making really complex business and technology topics understandable and actually fun to read. I will miss reading his insights, and my feed reader will feel a bit less optimistic without him.
