Tags: Jon Miller, the former CEO of AOL, has joined as chairman of the OpenX. I could list a million things that Jon accomplished in his career, but one stands out: every person I have spoken with that has worked for Jon would enthusiastically work for him again, and many consider him their mentor. To me, that one thing says the most about a person.
Why do we need Jon for OpenX? What does it mean for our publisher community?
Jon has much experience working with major advertisers, as well as large and small publishers. He understands how difficult it is to provide software, service, and media to medium to small publishers, which is the core user base of OpenX. He can help us grow from a small company to a larger one. He understands our need to continue to focus on making OpenX simple, scalable, and extendable. He is a true believer of open source (like our other investors).
The vision of OpenX is to help our publishers make more money online. Jon will help us do that.
Please help me welcome Jon to the OpenX team!

Does that mean Velocity has invested in you guys, or just Jon? Either way, congratulations.

Toni -
I assumed that this was a given! Thanks - it is definitely work being specific about our commitment to being open source (and free).

Let me share with you a positive earning experience .
checked up lots of variants to get cash;
the ones this forum is about .
And I searched out rightly what fits me in the utmost. Well, I can’t tell forex from casino gambling.
I’m a usual goofer, to make voyages, and not to spoil (mar) eyes sitting in front of the computer.
Not long ago , I started a blog in which I would like to open some secrets of getting cash from the Internet .
Intrigued?
