“They say that politics is made up of strange bedfellows. So is the technology industry where Apple plays a leading role,” Ron McElfresh writes for Mac360. “Apple competes against Samsung which sells chips and screens to Apple. The company’s newfound friend is Yahoo!, whose high powered search engine is run by Microsoft. If that’s not strange, then digest this. Apple’s next CEO is running a company that competes with Google and Microsoft.”
“Indulge me while I climb out on a limb and state the obvious. CEO’s don’t last forever. If they did, Steve Jobs would have led U.S. forces into Korea and held a military tribunal against Samsung’s CEO,” McElfresh writes. “CEO’s of the non-Jobs ilk have a tenure, a limited lifespan, if you will. Based on both fact and frivolous conjecture, I can tell you who Apple’s next CEO will be.”
McElfresh writes, “For the moment, Marissa Mayer is busy running one of Apple’s new friends, Yahoo! It seems like an odd relationship, but when you think about it, all about Yahoo! and Apple dovetail nicely into a powerhouse company that could thwart the ambitions of both Google and Microsoft.”
Gotta disagree with my good buddy Ron here. Mayer would turn Apple into an ad company. Ads would be delivered on the iPhone’s home page, and iOS would run like molasses, like the image-logged new Flickr interface. Targeted ad tracking would no longer bean option.
Yahoo was a fading star in the internet sky with the potential of fading into obscurity and becoming insoluble. They hired her as a hard line hatchet woman so she came in and started employee unfriendly changes to the operation of the company to force out dead wood. Whereas Apple is still riding pretty high and have tons of cash in reserve and has an entirely different process than Yahoo.
Yahoo is more or less an advertising company and required changes to become even remotely relevant and productive again. Apple is a trendy technology manufacturing company which requires an open and free unstructured environment than will allow development and innovation.
Let me be clear, the needs of these two companies are mutually exclusive. Just because you can make one thrive doesn’t mean you can do the same in a place with an entirely different dynamic.
She’s gonna kill Apple so fast your head will spin. If you have stock, dump it as soon as possible.
the state of the world is mostly in shit due to religion and Democracies that just can’t be secular for God’s sake!!; )
yours truly, USA, included!
there is NO freedom in religion.
only in secularity and rationality.
want spirituality? try neutral Taoism instead of religion.
anyways, Marissa Mayer can not lead Apple
as
1. all her focus is on Y!
2. she’s too religious to handle Apple
let’s please not see Apple’s NeXT Big Thing as iGodly products!!
I wouldn’t kick her out of bed for eating crackers.

Thanks, but no thanks.
Hahahahahahahaha!

MM – was a “project manager” at google… I don’t think the board would ever approve this..
Now if she can bank 2 or 3 billion a year from yahoo she MIGHT run a division within apple..
CEO = NFW
NOT.
We could have two co-CEO’s? It worked just fine for RIM!
Oh, BIGGER picture of her on the ball! YES!!!!
Sorry, what was the story covering again?
MDN states Marissa “Quite easy on the eyes and exceedingly smart, what’s not to like?*”
well, well, disagree:
she is a religious fanatic. her goal in life is
1. religion/god
2. family
3. Yahoo
