Richard MacManus is the Founder, Editor Emeritus of ReadWrite. New Zealander MacManus founded the site as ReadWriteWeb in 2003 and grew his blog about the changing Internet into an international team of journalists. From the early days of blogging and social networks to the cutting edge of health technology, MacManus is widely recognized as a leader in articulating what's next in technology and what it means for society at large.

In October 2012, MacManus left the blog he founded to write a book about technology. Today, still grounded in MacManus' thoughtful exploration of emerging trends, ReadWrite remains known for offering insightful commentary about the day's Internet industry news.
