Funambol is a 2007 AO 100 Top Company

Last year we made the Red Herring 100. They do not name companies twice, so this year we won something else ;-) We made in the 2007 AO 100 Top Companies, which is a pretty trendy list.

Looking at the list, I noticed:
  1. 13% of the companies in the list are mobile (thanks to the iPhone!). For example, there is AdMob, which is a cool company. Some of the others are mobile play but they do not know it yet: for example, Jajah (believe me they are a mobile play)
  2. 5% of the companies in the list are open source, such as rPath, MuleSource and others.
Bottom line: MOBILE OPEN SOURCE RULES :-)
