If you could ask Carol one thing...

Carol BartzCarol Bartz, our (newish) CEO, has been Yahoo!'s fearless leader for exactly four months. And in that time, I think it's fair to say she has handily won the hearts and minds of Yahoos the world over. She's candid, accessible, a quick study, and has an incomparable way with colorful one-liners. She's made some tough calls, but maintaining status quo wasn't in her job description. She sees the world through the eyes of a customer (both consumers and partners) and that's more than half the battle. And you clearly liked what she had to say when she stopped by in February.

In two weeks, Carol will sit in conversation with Kara Swisher at the annual D: All Things Digital conference. In honor of this first public appearance, she's agreed to an exclusive Q&A with Yodel Anecdotal. We invite you, dear reader, to submit whatever questions you'd like us to ask. We're squeezing into her calendar so we can't get to all of them, but we'd love your input. Fair game might be topics like "Why did you take this job?," "What do you think needs fixing at Yahoo!," "What's your favorite website?," and "Why do you like cheese so much?."

Please submit your questions via ycorpblog [at] yahoo-inc [dot] com no later than 5pm PT next Tuesday (May 19th). We'll post her answers on May 27th. Please include your name, city, and whether you'd prefer to be anonymous. And make it good!
