Every month, more than 700 million people around the world visit Yahoo's sites .... Yahoo's U.S. audience is second only to Google's, and larger than those of Microsoft and Facebook. ...... much of it may come from the outside, too, both from hiring promising tech executives and acquiring hot startups—two things that could be easier now given Mayer's cachet. ....
