Squawk Box January 25

by alec on January 25, 2008

This morning's Squawk Box was particularly lively.  We had a great cross section of people on the call including regulars Randall Howard, Jim Courtney, Howard Thaw, and newcomers Brad Dixon, Gernot Ross, and Nick Desbarats. We discussed the situation with Scrabulous, Facebook's platform and the businesses it has spawned, Microsoft's earnings results, and Sprint and Verizon's latests targets in their patent war.

Enjoy!

A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.

Good discussion – but I think you guys buried Scrabulous prematurely. It's still and and running!
