Yahoo! former CMO Cammie Dunaway sharpens the focus on the audience for a company that serves half of the users of the Internet worldwide.

It's just that kind of appetite for information in a very new kind of electronic enterprise that has distinguished the work of Yahoo and its top marketing officer.
