Slickdeals Taps OpenX, Twitter Vets For Board

Los Angeles-based Slickdeals, the online coupon and deal site led by Josh Meyers, has tapped two technology veterans for its board. Slickdeals said Thursday that it has named Tim Cadogan, the CEO of Pasadena's OpenX, along with Nathan Hubbard, head of commerce at Twitter, to its board of directors. Prior to becoming CEO of OpenX, Cadogan was Senior Vice President of Global Advertising Marketplaces at Yahoo!. Prior to Twitter, Hubbard was CEO of Live Nation Ticketing, and was CEO of Musictoday. Meyers has ramping up Slickdeals, looking to leverage a site with loyal users and lots of traffic but not focus on design, and adapting it to the mobile and social generation.
