You might have heard before, but in case you hadn't, today marks the last day of DV Guru. We've had a fun time blogging about all things digital video, and while it may be the end of the line for our lil' blog here, don't think it's the end for any of us. Allow me to go on for a minute about everyone, and let you know where some of your favorite bloggers are headed.

Ajit Anthony has been here since day one, and will keep going with his personal project, Squigglebooth. He's been an invaluable asset to the team, and kept the site afloat for a good amount of time with just himself.

Ajit says:
I feel like I have involuntarily graduated the DVguru school of filmmaking. It has been a great ride and a great education. To post here everyday also meant I had to learn on what I was talking about. I feel so much richer from the experience.

I'd like to thank all the people who have blogged for DVguru (and they have been several) and especially all you readers. We certainly are not stopping this because of a lack of readers. If anything, I can safely say we are leaving on a high note. Special thanks to people like Mike Curtis who was a resource in every way. Thanks to Randall who was a constant source of motivation that clearly pushed this site forward.

I am supposed to be blogging for other DV related sites, we'll see. What I do know is that I will be blogging at Ticklebooth and videoblogging on Squigglebooth. Hopefully, you will see one of my films playing at a theater near you. Thank you.

Chris Tew, most notably of PVRWire, is leaving the Weblogs, Inc. fold and partnering with webtvwire.com and webtvhub.com covering the biz of IPTV and internet distribution.

Russell Heimlich, one of our podcast peeps, will continue to contribute to NewTeeVee. In his time here, he did a ton to help our site, including the most trafficked post of DV Guru's lifespan. Yeah, it was the DVD rewinder, but still, pretty awesome.

Erstwhile features writer Ryan Bilsborrow-Koo is in pre-production on the upcoming internet TV drama The West Side. The show won't be premiering until March, however, so for now he can only offer up his solipsistic (his word, not mine...) ramblings at No Film School. We still blame him for the site's demise... but only because he's so awesome, we wish he could have written more, but peeps are busy, and we understand.

Adam Nielson will continue to work at his "real job" in television at KSL-TV in Salt Lake City, but online he'll be working with several projects, including Tech Check Daily, an online show about technology.

Sheila Ward has been a breath of fresh air to DV Guru. In her short time, she brought an awesome amount of content to DV Guru, and I'll always be grateful. She's not heading too far, since she'll be contributing a little to Download Squad with stuff like imaging tips and potentially some video how-to stuff. Besides that she'll be off doing her video business thing.

Brian Liloia, one of the "second generation" of DV Guru-ers, has some of the most interesting post DV Guru plans. This April, he'll be moving to an ecovillage community in rural Missouri, where he hopes to help build homes made out of mud and straw, partake in organic gardening, learn the ins and outs of solar and wind power, and promote a sustainable, low-impact, and self-sufficient lifestyle. While there, he has plans to start up several video/filmmaking projects in the form of some documentary work, and a series of online "TV shows" about the community and the theme of sustainability. Other than that, he'll continue writing a little bit for Download Squad and TUAW.

Randall Bennett, AKA me, has a ton of things going. I'm going to still contribute to some Weblogs, Inc. properties, like Blogging Stocks, but I'm also working on a new project called Tech Check Daily (with Adam Nielson) and continue ruling the world. Still haven't ruled out the possibility of leading another DV blog, but we'll have to see.

I've got to say I've had such an awesome time helping shape this site. All of our writers are great, and expect to see big things out of all of our writers. The other missing link? You. We have the most loyal and interesting readers in the whole world! (*tear*) Honestly, our readers are intelligent and always have an interesting comment to leave. Working at other blogs within Weblogs, Inc., I often dread reading the comments because they're filled with unintelligent drivel, but thanks to readers and comment writers like you, DV Guru has been an awesome place to be. Thanks, and we'll see you in the blogosphere in the sky (or at NAB, whichever comes first.)
