Why are so many Lindens leaving the lab in 2009? Linden Lab has had quite the shakeup of executives and employees in the last six months and the last year.

Things seem to be accelerated however in 2009 with several well known Linden Lab employees leaving so far in 2009 and announcing it on the Second Life blog.

For example:

1. February 2, 2009: Robin Linden left
