What a great choice by the Yahoo! board. Come October she’s going to deliver a beautiful baby boy (congrats to her) AND a healthy beautiful bouncing baby Yahoo! (congrats to the shareholders.)

Most important she has a technical background, and isn’t a MBA a tech company can’t be run by a BS degree and create new products than work. Good luck Marrisa.

How is someone that got demoted at her old gig a “star”, exactly?

Lee — I’ll admit that I don’t get your reference. Sidenote is just my way of sharing a related piece of information that isn’t part of the main story.

oooh, sidenote. Is Stacy a valley girl???. Hello?
I could be dating myself here, but not without obama’s blessing.
(I hope I didn’t start a new group for him to pander.)

I guess no one cares about this, but I find it interesting. Five CEO’s in 5 years. Marissa should make up 3 envelopes with the following instructions in them: Blame your predecessors; reorganize; make up three envelopes. This technique has been used for centuries. It has staying power, but not for long. All kidding aside, I believe in engineers.
They are the best of people and with some political help, they can overcome nearly every obstacle put in front of them. It are those that come from behind that cause the problems.
Good luck Marissa. We engineers have to stick together.
