CEO Blog Posts – HP versus Facebook
September 9, 2006
Robert Scoble notes that the CEO of Facebook has used this blog entry to great effect, but wonders where the HP CEO’s blog is.
I think I have the answer – there’s world of difference between the CEO of a social-networking site apologising for pissing his user base off with a software release, and the CEO of a publically-traded mutlinational blogging about how it feels to see his chairwoman exposed to such jaw-dropping allegations. My guess is that HP’s legal counsel is advising (ordering?) all HP board members to stay very quiet right now, and that this was as far the CEO could go under the current circumstances.
I’m a big fan of Robert Scoble’s magnificent efforts to get the world’s companies and company bosses to open up, but this is not the right moment for the HP board to discover blogging.
