Google, which has joined the league of tech companies cutting jobs to deal with the global slowdown, has now laid off the Indian-origin director of news after nearly 13 years of service. Madhav Chinnappa, Director of News Ecosystem Development at Google in the UK, wrote in a LinkedIn post, "I am leaving Google as part of the Google layoffs. I am on gardening leave at the moment which allows too much time to contemplate work, career, life etc."
