<\/a><\/center>When Marissa Mayer took over as CEO of Yahoo last year<\/a> there was some hope that she would bring more focus to a company that had long been adrift and without clear goals. Wired’s<\/em>\u00a0Ryan Tate<\/a>, however, notices that Yahoo<\/a> under her reign has actually become “more bloated” by paying $1.1 billion for blogging service Tumblr and $30 million for news digest app Summly. What’s more, the company has put itself in the mix to buy a stake in Hulu <\/a>by reportedly bidding between $600 million and $800 million<\/a>, so it doesn’t seem as though the company exactly has a laser-like focus on one particular area these days.<\/p>\n
