Executive Poser
Just read some excerpts from an interview of Yahoo! CEO, Carol Bartz. Let's jump right into the meat and potatoes. Apparently, Yahoo's CEO is predicting trouble for the big 'G'. Is she whacked or what? I think it is the former. Read on.
Google is going to have a problem because Google is only known for search...It is only half our business; it's 99.9% of their business. They've got to find other things to do...Google has to grow a company the size of Yahoo every year to be interesting.
I think "someone" needs to stop focusing on others and focus on one's own train wreck. I want to address the above comment. Google is NOT only known for search. Search is their primary market, but they have "found other things to do".
Are you living under a rock or something? Do I need to "school" you on Google's products and services? I am NOT an overrated and overpaid CEO, but know that Google is more than just search. DJ, drop a beat while I break it down for the poser.
