The Wired Blog Epicenter has published an internal email from IDG president Bob Carrigan announcing that Harry McCracken has been reinstated as editor-in-chief of PC World. As blogged last week, McCracken resigned recently following a conflict with his publisher, Colin Crawford, who, according to the memo, is “rejoining the IDG management team as executive vice president, online.”
Bonus links: Chad Dickerson is probably speaking for a lot of fans (including alumni) of IDG in expressing a sigh of relief for how this has played out. Another IDG alumni, Matt McAlister echoes the sentiment as does sometime IDG consultant, Paul Conley

Observation: When you read stuff like this from former employees, you know there’s something special about the organization and the individuals who run it.
