Co-CEOs? I only know one company that had co-CEOs, and that didn't work out well for them.


Yep, it's like Hurding Catz.

Ok I'll show myself out.


Very good. I'm pointing http://hurdcatz.com and http://hurdingcatz.com to MariaDB's web site...until I get a legal letter from Oracle.

(Actually every fourth load it goes to Bluehost instead, I have to look at my BIND and Apache later...)


I will be very disappointed if a Register subeditor isn't cutting and pasting this for a headline.


No no, you can stay.


That's beautiful. So Ellison is Hurding Catz now?


120+ points, and who says HN has no sense of humor :)


hahah, apparently the people that down-voted my positive response to his comment. sheesh.


And the guy that downvoted that ^^


It had to be done.


Ellison, Hurd and Catz. It does sound like Groucho Marx should be playing at least one of them.


well done. LOL someone voted this down??? I never understood the anti-humor folks on HN.


Wow, and it continues. Let's see how long you losers will keep this up?



Samsung is one of the most complex companies around. Check out their ownership structure: http://qz.com/223755/samsungs-bizarre-byzantine-ownership-st...


I started digging into companies with Co-CEOs and found this: "Research by consulting firm Mercer found that as of the end of 2008, just 34 of 6,487 public firms, or 0.5 percent, had co-CEOs."


Do you have a link?


Atlassian is also run by two CEOs


SAP did pretty well under co-CEOs.


It worked pretty good for MySpace... oh wait


Which company was that?


My guess is BlackBerry/Research in Motion.


Probably RIM/Blackberry.


RIM


Probably RIM.


Workday did it for about 8 years. Dave Duffield and Aneel Bhusri did pretty well, with Dave just stepping down a few months ago.


Sapient?
