Yahoo’s new non-lame, totally awesome new CEO: Marissa Mayer, the 37-year-old Google veteran who long played that company’s public face, will take the helm of a company in need of a strong, smart CEO who knows what she’s doing. Yahoo has had notoriously bad luck with CEOs in recent years, recently losing Scott Thompson in a resume-padding scandal. Mayer takes over a company that’s a giant of the web, but one that’s notorious for starving its best products. (photo by Giorgio Montersino)
