CNBC: Facebook has hired a member of Google's corporate development team to lead its fledgling merger and acquisition efforts, as the world's No. 1 Internet social network shows a growing appetite for deals. As Facebook builds up its M&A team, the company could increasingly vie with Google, which acquired more than 40 companies in 2010, for deals to snap up hot Internet start-ups. Amin Zoufonoun, a director of corporate development at Google, will join Facebook next week, the firm told Reuters on Monday. The move — the latest high-profile defection from the search giant to Facebook — underscores the growing rivalry between the two Internet powers. And it comes as Facebook steps up its acquisitions, which to date have primarily been small start-ups it has bought for engineering talent rather than actual products. "I think for sure over time they expect to do bigger and bigger deals," said a source familiar with the matter. "They've certainly got the stock and cash to do those kinds of things. So I expect them to be more active."

by Anahid Hojjati on Wed Mar 16, 2011 10:35 AM PDTClick on the ad for the concert on March 18th; Oakland's Paramount theatre. Omid and Amin Zoufonoun will be playing.
Many congratulations to Amin Zoufonon
by Anahid Hojjati on Wed Mar 16, 2011 08:44 AM PDTFor years, Zoulfonoun name for me has been intertwined with music. Later I came to know that few members of this family are not only great in music but also are in high tech. Very proud of Amin and the whole family for their contributions to Iranian Americans in the Bay area and all over.
We are very proud!

Such is the Iranian way. Honour killings , even on the web!
