SurveyMonkey adds HP CEO Meg Whitman to its board

SurveyMonkey said Thursday that it added Hewlett-Packard Co. CEO Meg Whitman to its board of directors.

The online survey company said the addition increases its board to nine members. Whitman, who also serves as HP's chairman and president, was previously CEO of e-commerce website eBay Inc.

In July, SurveyMonkey named HP executive Bill Veghte as CEO. Veghte replaced David Goldberg, who died in May while vacationing in Mexico. Goldberg was married to Facebook Inc. Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg, who was added to SurveyMonkey's board in July.
