The Guardian: Bylines

I regularly worked freelance for the Guardian from 2005 to 2009, often on the Money, Environment, Media or Travel desks. My first shift was on the website for the Money desk, when it was a couple of a computers in the basement of a building in Farringdon. My last shift in 2009 was just after they moved to swish new multi-million pound open-plan offices in Kings Cross. In that time the website grew from a basement operation to leading the business. 'Web first' became the mantra for stories, and print journalists, used to one deadline a day, were shaken awake with rolling news and multiple story demands throughout the day. It really was - still is - a revolutionary time. As a web editor on the site it was clear early on that the growth of the web was THE story in the industry. Looking back, even from a distance as short as a couple of years, it was clearly a historic shift – a moment when the page was turning on print in favour of the digital word. All past, present and future Guardian bylined work is here.
