Another Googler Leaves Google
Googler July 15th, 2007 - By Haochi
Yet another Googler leaves Google.
Pedram “Gangsta-programma” Keyani, an Orkut engineer, resigned from Google last Friday.
On Friday July 13th, 2007 I resigned from Google in search of new challenges and risks. This was a hard decision to come to and I have been seriously thinking about it for the last few months. In the end I decided (with support from my wife) that I am at the point in my career where I can make risky decisions. I am young enough that I can jump off the ledge and not worry about landing on my feet or my head because either way I have time to pick myself up and try again.
July 13th, that’s a day after Jason Shellen announced that he will be leaving Google.
I sense something.
Well, good luck.
*By the way, doesn’t he look familiar to you? :)

Pedram,
Take the jump. Since leaving corporate America I have never loooked back. I worked in animation and web for FOX, NBC, CBN , Reynolds and Reynolds and CMGI. Leaving corporate politics was the best decision I ever made. I look at it this way… ‘why waste time building, someone else’s dreams — when you can build your own!’

Pedram,
What will you do when Google buys Face Book??

I will buy binoculars in search of flying pigs.

You’re so brave Pedram, no pain no gain, I believe you will success by yourself (and of course, you wife).

Good for you! No risk…no progress.
You are lucky your wife supports you, but she already knows how smart and talented you are ;)
Best of Luck…and see you in the front page of the NYT.
