From Apple Insider:
Google reportedly hired away Apple senior director for 'secret project'
VentureBeat claims to have learned that Simon Prakash, an eight-year Apple veteran whose LinkedIn profile currently lists him as Senior Director of Product Integrity, is leaving the company for Google. Report author Dean Takahashi called the new hire "historic" for Google, as Prakash is reportedly the most senior person that the Mountain View, Calif., company has recruited away from Apple.
In his new role at Google, Prakash will allegedly work on a "secret project" that may be led by co-founder Sergei Brin. Brin is believed to be in charge of a number of clandestine research and development projects at the company, including an "X" lab that works on speculative technology.
