Yahoo’s Mayer shines spotlight on video

“We’re working on various methods in terms of how we can increase our video views, and watching,” Mayer said at the Reuters Global Technology Summit on Thursday. “It’s clear to me that our video business is something that’s growing a lot. It’s something that we’d like to accelerate.”
