Beijing time November 13 morning news, according to foreign media reports, Silicon Valley incubator company Y Combinator announced, Gmail and FriendFeed co-founder Paul Bucht (Paul Buchheit), and Y Combinator, a start-up enterprise consultant Hajis ·  Harj Taggar has become a general partner of the company. Bucht joined Facebook in April 2009 with Facebook's acquisition of FriendFeed, an angel investor himself.  Bucht announced his departure from Facebook in ane-mail, and Friday was his last day at Facebook. This is bad news for Facebook, because Bucht is an important success for Facebook and Google's talent competition. Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook's CEO, has said the acquisition of FriendFeed is not for the company's technology, but for the company's talent.  However, former FriendFeed co-founder Brettes Thelles (Bret Taylor) is still Facebook's chief technology officer. Bucht's affiliation may cause the change of Y Combinator. Although the company already has several partners, Paul Graham (Paul Graham) is now the company's most important strategy-makers. After joining Bucht, Y Combinator will have another partner who is well known and respected in the technology industry. (Nan)
