Carol Bartz is really good at shutting stuff down, doesn't even bother selling it.
Geocities, the publisher network, maven networks (only a year after they bought it for $160M) the list is long.
She's the worst CEO Yahoo! has had and instead of rewarding her they should throw her out and bring in someone with a vision on how to turn the tide.
If that doesn't happen yahoo will continue it's long and slow decomposition.
She joined in January '09, and since then the company has been on a steady slide down from the #1 visited website to now the #4 position. That's still huge, but it is clear that Yahoo! is coasting on momentum alone.
