Carl Vancil, who writes a column for About.com, is joining Syntagma Media.

Carl will take over our Google Future blog on Wednesday. He also blogs on computer health matters over at b5media.

I’m delighted to welcome Carl to our network and wish him well here. I can tell him we’re an oasis of peace here at Syntagma Towers with flowers growing upside-down from the ceilings and never a cross word uttered. Something to do with the Devon air, I believe.

We’re also looking for a sailing blogger — that’s a blogger who knows about sailing, not one who’s all at sea.

Anyone with close knowledge of the U.S. personal finance scene would also be most welcome.
