Top Ten for the week of 2/8/2010

Every week, I try to come up with something witty to say about the executive moves from the previous week. While there were a lot of interesting moves last week, I can't think of anything insightful to say. All of the Top 10 from last week should have an immediate and noticable impact at their new employers and seem to have records of success to bring to the table. Anadigics added great talent to their executive team with Mike Canonico and Greg White. Roku added a potential successor to their CEO with David Krall. Hopefully I will lose my writer's block next week.
