Posted by msmash on from the moving-on dept.

Former Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer, who resigned on Tuesday after running the company for about five years, appeared at a conference in London today. At the conference, Mayer said one of the things she was looking forward to in her post-Yahoo life was using Gmail again. "I am always faster when using a tool I designed myself," she added.

    This story is as irrelevant as her tenure at Yahoo.

      As one of the 100 legitimate Yahoo users remaining, i respectfully disagree with you!

    We can only assume she designed them all, then.

    (Googles "marissa mayer net worth") ... 430 million? That poor woman. Can we start a gofundme for her?

    Separate note on how moronic your comment is: you think that a joke that she's going to use gmail now is going to cause her not to be hired, but not saving Yahoo isn't?

    Considering how nonsensical the executive world is... I guess?

    Marissa Mayer did not invent Gmail.
    Everyone knows that was Shiva Ayyadurai.
