The publishers shuffle at Conde Nast continues. Chris Mitchell, currently serving as Wired's publisher, will take over the same position at Conde Nast Traveler.

"Chris' strong background in the luxury and business categories, plus experience in the digital world, make him an ideal fit for Conde Nast Traveler," Conde CEO Si Townsend said in a statement. (You have to love how that "experience in the digital world" comes off as an afterthought. Oh Conde, how we love your dislike of the Internets.)

The CNT position opened up when its publisher, Lisa Hughes, joined The New Yorker, replacing Drew Schutte who is now heading CN's digital team.

Mitchell joined Wired in March, 2008, but was unable to do much to stem the loss of advertising pages.

In a fun bit of medialand trivia, the new CNT publisher is married to Pilar Guzman, editor-in-chief of Cookie.

Full release after the jump.
