싸이노젠보다 싸이노겐이 더 발음에 가까운듯.
구글로 부터 안드로이드를 가져오고 싶다는 말도안되는 회사에서 이제 가능할것 처럼 보이는 회사가 되었네요. 아주 오래된 삼성 노트1에 싸이노젠을 설치했더니 정말 날라다닙니다. 지금 노트4보다 더빠릿해진것 같네요.
이미 투자회사도 많이 있고, 요즘 hire하는것 보니, 이미 날라가기위한 펀드는 충분한것으로 보입니다.내년 상장을 목표로 하고 있을듯.

Cyanogen Taps Microsoft, Qualcomm Veterans For Fight To Control Android
It’s hard to keep Kirt McMaster quiet.
The CEO of Cyanogen, the Palo Alto startup with a bold plan to wrest control of Android from Google, is known for his brashness and bravado. Minutes into my first interview with him in January, he was summing up Cyanogen’s improbable mission: “We’re putting a bullet through Google’s head.” Even one of his leading investors told me they wished McMaster wouldn’t “poke the bear too many times and so loudly.”
Yet in the past few months, McMaster has been unusually circumspect. After a flurry of partnership announcements at the Mobile World Congress in early March, and news that Microsoft MSFT +1.16% had joined forces with the company in April, Cyanogen and McMaster went largely silent.
But on Tuesday, when I caught up with him to check on the progress of his crusade, McMaster was his usual, blustery self.
“I’m even more bullish,” he said.
On Wednesday, Cyanogen announced two key engineering hires: Stephen Lawler, a veteran of Amazon and Microsoft, who is joining as senior vice president of engineering, and Karthick Iyer, a Qualcomm QCOM +0.27% vice president and engineering lead on Android, who will be vice president of global systems.
McMaster said Lawler, an Amazon vice president who previously worked as CTO for Bing Maps at Microsoft, will help to lead Cyanogen’s efforts to develop a suite of mobile services — in house and through partnerships — to compete with those offered by Google GOOGL +0.87%. Iyer, he said, will help broaden the Cyanogen platform as more and more manufacturers agree to build smartphones based on the Android variant.”When we are able to attract people like that to the team, it’s invigorating,” McMaster said. “Other people tend to follow. It’s good for the company. It shows people we can deliver on the promise.”
