    Best Buy passes CEO torch to tweeting executive

    By Dan Haugen | Published Wed, Jun 24 2009 9:35 am

    Starting today Best Buy has a new chief executive tweeter.

    Brian Dunn, who started with the company as a store clerk 25 years ago, succeeds Brad Anderson today as CEO of the world's largest consumer electronics retailer.

    The Associated Press has a profile of Dunn, who has been touring the company's stores and tweeting about his visits with employees since his CEO appointment was announced in late January.

    Meanwhile, Best Buy employees are tweeting their congratulations to the new boss.
