<br />
Steven Wade has been cranking out blog posts about all things <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/saab/">Saab</a> for the last six years at the helm of <a href="http://www.saabsunited.com">Saabs United</a>, a blog he helped create. Eventually, the strains of a family, full-time job and keeping Saabs United afloat meant that selling the site was necessary. Meanwhile, 'Swade,' as he is known, decided to quit his day job to focus on his love for all things Saab.<br />
<br />
With the day job out of the way, the newly unemployed Wade has now been picked up by Saab to handle social media duties as the company tries to connect more with its customer base. Needless to say, this is a huge step for Wade, who will be helping Saab connect with its loyal base of customers and fans on an intimate level.<br />
<br />
We can't think of a better man for the job, given Swade's immense talent, knowledge of Saabs, of love for the brand. Good luck and Godspeed.<em> </em>The automaker's official statement is yours for the reading <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/15/saab-hires-saabs-united-blogger-steven-wade-as-social-media-guru/#continued">after the jump</a>.<em> Thanks for the tip, Johan!</em><br />
