MP3 - iTunes

Facebook executive Chris Kelly, former eBay C.E.O. Meg Whitman, former eBay executive Steve Westly, former tech startup C.E.O. Steve Poizner, and former Hewlett Packard C.E.O.

I put that question to Owen Thomas of Valleywag.

Listen to a longer, mostly unedited version of my interview with Thomas.
