Launches and changes
May 18, 2012 clicker updates
BusOps alum, Steve Cohn, has a launch – http://www.irrive.com/site/team. Go Steve. I’ve been pinging with him for early beta access, I’m confident I’m on the short list!
Some birds have left the roost, from marketing: Campbell Foster and Jon Nevitt. With CAB coming in a few weeks, feels timely that they are leaving.
In other news, I had lunch with Tom Shields yesterday, founder of Yieldex, which now employs a handful of Thornton ex-Clickers. Tom and Yieldex are doing great!

Innovid ex roster
Mar 12, 2012 clicker updates
Not sure why, but I noticed Innovid had a few ex-Clickers.. James Weinberg, Sarah Masters, and advisor named Rosenblatt. Frank Morgano too, but I didn’t work with him at DCLK. Diddy used to be there, but he’s bolted. Not sure how well Innovid is doing these days, I’ll listen out for tid-bits.

News.. what there is
Feb 11, 2012 clicker updates
As has been the consistent trend for some time now, ex-Clickers end up at direct competitors, trying to be the foil to the GOOG and the remnants of DoubleClick. Most recently, Eric Rosenthal ended up as GM over at OpenX. OpenX is boasting about 1 trillion requests, in all 2011. I can’t disclose what the DFP/DFA stack is doing, but let’s just say, they have some room to grow to catch up.
Also, MongoDB continues to make news with tying SQL to Google’s own mapreduce. Mapreduce and Hadoop are now full-blown businesses, good to see MangoDB tying things together.
AdMeld
Dec 22, 2011 clicker updates
Watching a video of Brian Kane explaining AdMeld to a bunch of Googlers.. this story is so interwoven, I don’t know the right word to describe. Great to have Brian, Joe, and Nicole Pruess back in the fold!!
Mojiva adding Clickers
Dec 15, 2011 clicker updates
