Ingram mashup continues

Ingram's announcement this week of consolidation of its traditional and digital publishing divisions into Ingram Content Group was foreshadowed a year ago by the elimination of Kirby Best's job as CEO of the former Lightning Source unit. The latest move also takes out Frank Daniels (left), who'll vacate post as chief commercial officer for Ingram Digital and president of VitalSource Technologies.

Daniels outlined his background in a recent self-nomination to an e-publishing industry board. Here's the interview his did with The Futurist, less than a year ago.
