I really doubt this is going to help anything–except delay the real issue. Yahoo! has lost its way and is grasping for things to make it better. How do I know this? I don’t; it’s mostly speculation. However, it’s not all speculation. Yahoo’s! problems are clearly around leadership and finding a new voice. Reorg’s rarely fix these things. But they do make one feel better for a while. Kind of of like having a second helping of desert.
