  Weird. I recognize only half the companies on that chart, and I'm not sure what Adobe or salesforce have to with marketing.

    Adobe are huge in the enterprise analytics world. I would argue they are kind of shitty at it but they are huge all the same.

  Something's weird about that graphic. Do 17% only of people really recognize the brand Microsoft? Or (more likely) is it that only 17% of people realized they do "marketing technology"?

    I'm guessing it's the latter, and as this was put out by Marketing Land, it was a poll of their readers. I don't necessarily associate MS with marketing, but they probably mean Bing as a marketing channel.

At the first glance, yes, I then quickly realized it was about the SEO company. I think it has a lot to do with being a developer and using the css prefix -moz for mozilla based browsers.

I did at first, and I am a Mozilla engineer. Mozilla makes heavy use of AWS for running portions of our continuous integration system; the cost is significant: http://oduinn.com/blog/2013/12/13/the-financial-cost-of-a-checkin-part-2/ http://oduinn.com/blog/2013/12/13/the-financial-cost-of-a-ch...

  It's pretty staggering that every checkin and try run costs 30 bucks.
