Hurley said: “Our vision is to create the world’s best platform for uses to save, share, and discover new content. With the acquisition of Tap11, we will be able to provide consumer and enterprise users with powerful tools to publish and analyse their links’ impact in real-time.”
Tap11 CEO Adam Zbar will stay on with the company as head of business operations and strategy while chief technology officer Braxton Woodham will become head of engineering at AVOS. The company is located in San Mateo, the small Northern California town where Hurley and Chen started YouTube.
