A brilliantly cynical email emerged from Yahoo about their latest reorganization, with highly placed executive Hilary Schneider, a close confidant of president Sue Decker, mentioned regularly.
To borrow a phrase from Drew Carey, whose reorg is it anyway? The emailed bit of genius that showed up in Comments about the search team were of particular interest. We've wondered how Yahoo's team, who spent a lot of time developing Yahoo's new search marketing system as well as refining the current search engine, would take the news of Yahoo's deal with Google for search ads.Nothing indicates a job well done better than outsourcing your own job to the competition. Am I right, or am I right? After all, it is not as if we had sold the entire search team to another company for a premium price - that would have been a slap in the face! By contrast, outsourcing as much of the search business to Google as legally allowed in exchange for near term cash, that is much more re-assuring. It tells us all that we are truly valued.Anonymous emailer, we applaud your style.
