As you’ve probably seen on Twitter, on Friday I’m leaving Last.fm.

I’ve learned an awful lot in the last two years, and done much much more than I ever expected to. It’s been brilliant and difficult and totally unique. I’m going to miss the scrobbles, grumpy amazing developers and my job title an awful lot.

Next I’m off to Barcelona for a boozy holiday at a music festival: I’m told this is required behaviour for anyone leaving Last.HQ.

After that? I’m going to be freelancing. I’ve got a few projects lined up for the next couple of months (more on those soon), but if you want to chat to me about any writing, project management, or general consulting-type-stuff then drop me a line at matthew.sheret@gmail.com.
