Marissa Mayer, Google’s 20th employee, will today start her new role as president and CEO of the internet portal. Yahoo said the appointment marked a renewed focus on product innovation to drive user experience and advertising revenue.

Speaking about her new role at Yahoo, she said, “I am honoured and delighted to lead Yahoo, one of the internet’s premier destinations for more than 700 million users.
