Mountain View, Calif. -- California's online networking service LinkedIn said Wednesday that former Yahoo! Inc., executive Jeff Weiner would serve as its new chief executive officer.

Weiner had served as the interim president since January. His departure from Yahoo! was part of the fallout of a proxy war with activist investor Carl Icahn, who was pushing for Yahoo! to accept an unsolicited bid from Microsoft Corp. a year ago.
