Marissa Meyer single handed destroyed Yahoo with meaningless micromanagement principles shifting that company's core focus (their security breaches prove that well).

I thought it had shut down. It hasn't signed in/connected for me in years. I really get the feeling I'm going to have to find a new homepage soon.

Yahoo! was kinda doomed since 2008. I really doubt anyone, even if they were "qualified", could have turned it around.
