Again on Friday, a Yahoo! Resign

I don't understand what Friday has to do with the Yahoo! resign from the company. We got word that Jimmi Kembaren recently joined Yahoo! Southeast Asia for about a year, resigning effective next month. Kembaren handles the technical part of business development, a position he has held since February this year. Previous Kembaren is a partner support specialists

and YDN evangelist
on Yahoo!.

Kembaren was recruited in 2010 after participating in Yahoo Open Hack Day in Jakarta at the end of 2009. Kembaren created Twittermania which was later developed into Twiterus, an analysis engine for Indonesian-language tweets. When Twitter launched Local Trends in early 2010, Twitter felt the impact and make some changes

to add a collection of links and popular news shared by Indonesians via Twitter. When Kembaren launched the second version of Twitter, he joined Yahoo! and sold the project to Indo.com at an undisclosed price.

Kembaren confirmed to DailySocial of his resignation as he was about to board a flight to Hanoi this morning. Next project? He hasn't said anything yet but DailySocial has suspicions that he will again build a startup.
