Top Ten for the week of 1/25/2010
I have been publishing the Pulse Blog for nearly 1 year and I always see names that we caught before and after press releases. I got an e-mail today announcing that Dean Mansfield was named CEO of Fonality. We caught this change last week! I am, of course, smiling. Last week was big for acquisitions. The amount of information that can be gathered simply from monitoring executive pages is amazing. Siperian was acquired by Informatica, corporate executive page now goes to Informatica’s page. Last week, Oracles completed their acquisition of Sun and now the Sun executive page goes to Oracle’s website. Ericsson completed their integration of Tandberg and now Tandberg’s website goes to Ericsson.
