Search Engine Watch editor Elizabeth Osmeloski becomes the latest high-profile figure to announce a departure from the influential search news website. Friday, May 25th will be Elizabeth's last day at Search Engine Watch. The editor, who WebProNews interviewed last month, cited a shift to a new company as the reason for her change.

"I'm looking forward to being the in-house director of online media, managing the content development strategy and online marketing programs for vacation rentals at zonder.com," Elizabeth said in her SEW post. She will still be involved with the SES Travel conference, which takes place July 26-27.

Elizabeth noted some upcoming changes to SEW, including a site upgrade and the addition of new contributors and staff.

Her exit follows last year's departure of Danny Sullivan from Search Engine Watch, the site with which he was identified with for years. He now runs Search Engine Land and a new conference series.

"It was always great working with her, and one of the saddest parts of leaving was saying goodbye to her as a work colleague," Danny said on his site.
