Title: Microsoft buying LinkedIn
Post by: Joe on June 13, 2016, 10:49:23 AM
Microsoft is buying LinkedIn for a whopping $26.2 billion in big data push (http://www.techrepublic.com/article/microsoft-is-buying-linkedin-for-a-whopping-26-2-billion-in-big-data-push/?ftag=TRE684d531&bhid=20703142171098067451473055926429)

WOW! That is a lot of cash.

Wonder if they get Lynda with it too. I would assume so.

FFS. BILLION.

I get stoked when I find a $10 in the pocket of my sweatshirt.

Can't see why they'd want it; I must be missing something.

Hope they at least plug all the holes. From what I've read lately, LinkedIn's big data breach is still having repercussions years later.
