Reuters/Second Life -- Linden Lab picks online marketing executive as CEO

deryck — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 15:13:51 PDT

Reuters breaks the story that marketing executive Mark Kingdon will become the CEO of Linden Lab. An interesting story, and though I don't know that side of the technology business well to know anything about Mark, what is mentioned here seems to hold promise for the future. It seems like a smart choice, and one that plays well to Rosedale's strengths, too. Seems like a good move, and a nice article from Reuters. For breaking SL news, Reuters seems to own that area for now.

Excellent article that gives a detailed description of the software powering Slashdot. This is the followup in a two-part series. The first part dealt with the hardware, which was equally as interesting.

I just don't see people getting excited about this. Why would I want a desktop reader for one platform and one news paper when I can use a web browser to search and read anything?
