I’ve spoke to quite a few people who know Kilar well, and most of them described him as that rare content guy with technical chops. A good team builder, he is said to inspire.

His defining quality is hyper-competitiveness — something that would be important to fire up the troops.

More than two years ago I suggested that  Yahoo Should Buy Hulu for one simple reason — Jason Kilar.
