Guess Which Yahoo Search Feature Marissa Mayer Loves?

  • Although some have argued that to succeed, new Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer must learn how to deal with a company whose main focus is online media, not search, that hasn’t stopped Mayer from taking to Twitter to express good things about Yahoo search.

    Is this #ExactlyWhatYouWant?

    As the Mayer story goes, she came up as Google’s first female engineer, and by all accounts she had a big part in the development of the company as a search behemoth. Now, barely a day after leaving Google, she’s already enamored with this little Yahoo search function.

    But let’s not go too deep into a tweet, except to say that it’s good that Mayer is already publicly getting behind her new company. It appears that they did butter her up a bit with some Yahoo baby goodies, as yesterday we learned that Mayer is also seven months pregnant.
