I used to be getting a bit nostalgic after seeing Microsoft’s CEO, Satya Nadella on stage introducing the brand new Bing on Tuesday. I checked again at my data after vaguely remembering him doing the identical factor in 2008 for Reside Search (now Bing).
I discovered the above photograph from a PubCon/WebmasterWorld convention in November in Las Vegas. He had the keynote, I even reside blogged it (it’s enjoyable to look again…).
In any occasion, you possibly can learn the brand new protection on the new Bing right here when you missed it.
Satya joined Microsoft in 1992, he was the Senior Vice-president of Analysis and Improvement for the On-line Providers Division in 2008 when he did this keynote. His title additionally might have been Company Vice-president of Enterprise Options and Search & Promoting Platform Group throughout that point. He turned CEO of Microsoft on February 4, 2014.
