Since Limelight Networks Inc. (Nasdaq: LLNW) CEO Jeff Lunsford took over in November 2006, the company has faced patent litigation, increasing price pressure, and a plummeting stock price. In his interview with Contentinople, he talks about next steps in the Akamai Technologies Inc. (Nasdaq: AKAM) infringement suit, Limelight's growing enterprise business, and why he's not concerned about dwindling average revenue per customer.

imho, adding a new "sales team", throwing a few more bucks at marketing and just now starting to add media services sounds more like patching the boiling tea kessel with scotch tape = "we can't make it as a stand alone CDN; sooory just figuring this out now"

if i was JL, and i thank my personal dieties every day that i am not, i'd trade that rakish smirk in for a more humble expression while he does the catalina madelina to the VC's about how low the stock price has fallen- will continue to implode.  the green-grey glazed looks from the IPO must seem a wolrd away. 

the smoke about the legal process taking years, is just smoke if they not around to defend the suit or are still functioning as a going concern.

akamai will eat most of the frosting, the well endowed new GB4 pennies players will fiddle with thier middle and bottoms; LLNW will be left with crumbs, the paper cupcake wrapper and a lot of good intentions- unfufilled. 

it just doesn't seem like it will be long before this desperado es buscando por otro trabajos y pastos mas verde.

like a rex out of reach- typical story, heard it before; - tiny arms, big heads/ peabrains, empty tummies...or similarly stated---(smoke+mirror) x song = dance - (dog + pony)
