Hiring Yahoo Executive!
I was just checking out some tech news and came across something that I missed last Thursday. If you can’t buy them, hire them. That’s what Microsoft did, they hired a ex Yahoo executive Qi Lu to take over it’s Online Services Group. This group has been struggling really badly since Microsoft purchased it. Microsoft purchased aQuantive in May 2007 for a whopping $6 billion. And they took on their CEO Brian McAndrews to run the business. But McAndrews never lived up to what Microsoft wanted out of him and the company they purchased. So now Microsoft will hire Qi Lu to take over this part of the business. And who knows, he just might be able to turn things around for Microsoft.
