Seesmic CEO Loic LeMeur has reported today that he has cut 7 headcount from the Seesmic workforce today. This is in addition to the 3 people who were let go last month. I’ve reached out to Loic to get an idea of how what percentage of total employees this headcount reduction accounts for – when I met Loic at the Seesmic office last month, it seemed like there were about 10 people there but I believe they have an office in France as well.

Update: Liz Gannes says Seesmic has about 13 employees after those let go today.

Seesmic has raised $12 million in venture capital funding to-date. Loic has created a video to explain about the headcount reduction:

Best of luck to everyone who was let go – if I can be of any assistance with connections, let me know.
