Post 290 -- Yang Out, Bartz In


















Jerry Yang Out,
Carol Bartz In
as
New Yahoo! CEO


We pretty much knew this was coming, what with the snafu with Yahoo and the Microsoft Taker-Over Bid Last year, where Jerry said: "No Thanks.."

MS wanted to pay roughly $43.00 a share, as of Today Yahoo! is at: $12.10.

The TWiTs with Leo Laporte and John C. Dvorak talked about the switch to Carol Bartz, and felt her Organizational Skills was just what Yahoo! Needed.

But Checking today's Grist Milling about, not everyone is so confident. The Links Follow.
