Rapportive Announces Acquisition By LinkedIn, (Basically) Confirms $15M Price
After reports earlier this month that LinkedIn was buying contact management service Rapportive, the startup just published a blog post confirming that yes, it has been acquired.For those of you who don't use it, Rapportive is a Gmail plugin that shows you the latest social network updates from whoever you're corresponding with. (I've gotten so used to seeing the Rapportive window next to my emails that I sometimes forget that it's not a default part of Gmail.) And if you're a Rapportive user who's worried that the deal will follow the pattern of so many other startup acquisitions, it sounds like LinkedIn won't be shutting Rapportive down.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/V0s_c57DOpE/
