Google Israel Re Googles
February 8, 2009
Globes.co.il reported that Google Israel has shuffled its organization. "Google Israel Restructures" here reported on February 8, 2009, that Professor Yossi Matias will run the new one office operation. The GOOG will combine its Tel Aviv and Haifa R&D facilities. The article reported: "The new center will have additional responsibilities including data analysis and search. The expanded search responsibility will be lead by Dr. Yoelle Maarek, a specialist in search technologies."
My take: cost rationalization. Stay tuned. Keep in mind that the links to Globes.co.il content 404 after a short period of time. A news hound or pundit will carry a version of the story I assume.
