Under deconstruction

Just as we get ready to tear the final few sheets off the 2008 desk calendar, we find it’s time to turn the last page on the Alticor Media Blog.

Since we launched in early 2006, we’ve had the pleasure of making new acquaintances with journalists, bloggers, fans and critics alike. We’ve been cited in newspaper stories, political ads, judicial opinions – and a few never-published posts that could have made General Patton blush.

Decommissioning the blog is a nomenclature call: In 2006, our public persona was divided among four companies – Alticor, Amway, Quixtar and Access. Going forward, however, we will do most of our communicating to public audiences under the Amway and Amway Global flags; continuing an “Alticor” blog seems out of place. So we’ll lock up the place, flip out the lights, and pack the old threads and recipe cards in archives.

The Amway Media Blog, meanwhile, isn’t going anywhere – in fact, we will re-launch it early next year with a new look and feel. We expect it to remain a place for breaking news, public statements and straight talk. And the OZone blogs are of course alive and well. We hope you visit them early and often.

And away we go.
