Various tech news sites (
AllThingsDigital,
TechCrunch,
Valleywag,
VentureBeat,
Silicon Alley Insider,
CNET News.com) report that Dan Nye is leaving
LinkedIn from his role as CEO, as part of a four way executive shuffle. I wonder if some of the problems rumored on Valleywag were the cause of Dan needing to leave, or if there were other matters. It is a bit hard to believe that Dan leaving after less than 2 years on the job was some sort of regular plan or natural progression of the business.
Whatever it is, I hope Dan lands on his feet somewhere.
