This just reminds me how much a Hail Mary the appointment of Meyer was. There's an argument that nothing could have saved Yahoo. Essentially, by hiring a inside-SV PM-type, the board thought that Yahoo had a product and technology problem. It did, but its business problems were far greater. In hindsight, 2013 would have been the perfect time for Yahoo to have been sold for parts. Perhaps a more business-minded executive would have recognized that.
