On Tuesday 9th March 2010 on the SLED mailing list, Pathfinder Linden posted a message saying that he will leave Linden Lab, as of Friday 12th, March 2010. Pathfinder Linden will still be tweeting and he will be following the SLED mailing list. It’s really sad to see him leave and all the best for the future. Another sad day I think!
SLED Message
Greetings, Due to recent reorganizations at Linden Lab, my current position (Evangelist, Market Development) has ceased to exist. There are no alternative positions available to me, so as of March 12th I will be leaving the company. I am not sure what the future holds for me, but it will probably involve something at the intersection of online communities, virtual worlds and neuroscience. I will be remaining open to new opportunities. I'll continue to follow this mailing list, since innovation in education and healthcare remains near and dear to my heart. You all are doing amazing work, and I'll be sticking around to see what you come up with next! Take care, -John (formerly Pathfinder Linden)
The Second Life Community will indeed miss Pathfinder Linden greatly.
