Farewell to E2, but Not Goodbye

Susan Nunziata
For more than four years, EnterpriseEfficiency.com (E2) has been the best IT community on the Internet. As with all good things, soon our time together here will end.

As of May 31, the E2 party will be over. But fear not. Just like the Oscars or the Grammys, the best parties always have the best after-parties. In fact, in this case, you're invited to two after-parties: Dell Tech Page One, where you can find news and analytics from the Dell Inc. editorial team; and IT Strategy, the new community on InformationWeek.com where all your favorite E2 editors will be hanging out.

Tech Page One is a rich source of information for professionals who place a high value on technology that enables their lives. It covers enterprise technology, business, and a bit of gadget-geek culture. Whether you’re exploring topics like modernizing the datacenter, turning big data into usable insights, or how IT is reshaping healthcare, Tech Page One has you covered.

Our longtime E2 editorial team of Susan Nunziata, Curtis Franklin Jr., and David Wagner, along with all our valued contributors, will be hosting the after-party at our new home: IT Strategy on InformationWeek.com. Our own Sara Peters will also be dropping in as she can; Sara's en route to IT Security stardom with her new gig at our sister publication Dark Reading.

IT Strategy will feature the CIOs and other tech leaders you’ve come to know and love here in our E2 community. But that's not all. The IT Strategy community will throw open its doors and invite the rest of the C-suite into the party. Together, we can talk about how your technology choices impact the business, and how business is affecting the way you make technology decisions.

In the next few days, you’ll see tributes to E2 from our editors, our contributors, and our community members. What always made E2 strongest is you: the people who read our content and listen to our radio shows, join our live chats and comment on our posts, and openly share professional struggles with us on a daily basis. You made E2 the best community around. For that we’re grateful. As we move on to our new home, IT Strategy on InformationWeek.com, we welcome you to join us there and keep our community going strong.

Don't think of this as an ending. Rather, it's two new beginnings. From the foundation of E2, you have two resources at your disposal, each with its own unique content: Dell Tech Page One and IT Strategy.

Thank you for more than four years of sharing your personal and professional lives with us here at Enterprise Efficiency. We feel proud to be a part of this amazing community. We look forward to seeing you at the after-parties.

Re: See ya --- somewhere else
@Broadway: Beatufiully said and thank you so much. YOU and everyone here is what made E2 special. We're moving to a much bigger place though I can only foresee good things as we are able to welcome new community members, have a big range of topics to discuss, and also all keep in touch there.

I'm still catching up on all the visitors to the new place, so forgive me if I didn't get the chance to welcome you in the new home yet. You'll find us here:
