Om Malik passed away this week. He was one of the greats - smart, thoughtful, and kind.
He was always willing to engage on an interesting idea or question, but he took his time and thought deeply before weighing in. That combination is rare.
He was a wonderful writer and an outstanding photographer. His blog, On my Om, and his photography at Photos by Om, are both worth your time.
Mostly, he was an amazing human. The world was a better place with him in it.
