Marc Andreessen On Marissa Mayer Joining Yahoo: Its Great For The Valley
Barely an hour after longtime Google executive Marissa Mayer was announced as the new CEO of Yahoo, venture capitalist Marc Andreessen praised the move while on-stage at the Fortune Brainstorm Tech conference in Aspen.He contrasted Mayer with Yahoo interim CEO Ross Levinsohn, who was seen was another leading contender. Andreessen was careful to praise Levinsohn, but he said Levinsohn would have been more of sales- or content-centric CEO, whereas Mayer will be a product-centric CEO and having another product CEO is "great for the valley." In fact, he noted that Yahoo's press release says the appointment "signals a renewed focus on product innovation."Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/ZBjZtoGBp7o/
