Their new CEO, whose attitude I like (she happily discourses on the things she thinks are ridiculous about their products – something that she’ll start to stop doing once stuff is built under her), seems to a bee in her proverbial bonnet about (at least some) Y! product managers. From their Q109 quarterly earnings call : “We sort of had one product management person for every three engineers.

The recent Conficker virus scare had me warning relatives to protect their PCs, while also simultaneously gloating about how lucky I am to not be affected, since I’m a Mac user. You could say it bordered on the obnoxious, and you’d be right
