@Yodel123

Some of your comments regarding Tapan are true, but he is a very smart, competent guy, which is more than I can say for Garlinghouse, having worked with both guys. Tapan is in the position he is in today because he got recruited by Yahoo!

@H.Leadbelly
>Marco Boerries? SVP of Connected Life…

He was after my time at Yahoo!, but I have heard so many bad things about this guy… he would be a disaster. I’ve met people who quit Yahoo! knowing that they would be reporting to Boerries.

>approach and works directly with the designers/engineers/PMs
>sometimes on a daily basis. I can’t say I like him but he certainly
>has the inflated ego and desire for power suitable for the job!

I was told he is a massive micro-manager and likes to change things to make peoples’ lives difficult, not to improve the product.

it will probably be garlinghouse but it really should be scott – he’s got the track record, the team and the maturity to lead yahoo (or, in this case, the network) at this challenging point in time. that said, i wouldn’t bet on him getting it as he’s been working in santa monica and not in the mother ship.

@Josh & @Bleeding Purple:

The only reason no-talent asses like Garlinghouse keep getting mention on TechCrunch is due to Arrington’s dubious insight into tech companies in general and Y! in particular. He himself is big on blab and little on action, and so Brad G clicks well with him. They’re the same type of self-promoting yammering blowhard.

Brad’s idiotic memo was a total duh moment in Yahoo history. It said what every employee from the bottom up already knew for years before dialpad was acquired and asshole brought on-board. But since Arrington has the focus of a 12 year old with ADHD he couldn’t stop bleeding purple himself and ate peanut butter sandwiches for an entire year (3 times a day, I hear).

To even mention that douchebag as a potential successor for Weiner is simply his way of paying back Brad for his constant leaks to TechCrunch. In short, Arrington is an asshole who shills for his sources (Brad) and financial supporters (M$)
