I’m a little late on posting about this one, but it’s one I felt needed to be addressed anyway.

Marissa Meyer is one who’s often praised inside Google for helping to prioritize Google initiatives.
She’s often taunted outside Google in blogs and forums for being very controlling.

I’ve never met her, so there is no way I could form an opinion. However, I always like people to see both sides of any story before they make up their mind.

Here is a great businessweek article that put’s things in a bit of perspective about Marissa Meyer and her contributions to Google’s growth.
