The Yahoo! Joke Is On Me!

by Cathy on March 8th, 2007

Carolyn McCarthy over at Webware (a Cnet site) writes about the new MyYahoo released today in beta. As slow as Yahoo is sometimes, I thought the current MyYahoo might still be beta! Anyway, I wanted to see it so I clicked on the link. Seems like if you already have a MyYahoo page, you don’t just look at it or have the ‘opportunity’ to look at it - YOU GET IT!

I must be one of the ‘lucky’ ones. Carolyn reports “The new My Yahoo is not readily available; rather, it’s in a limited beta that only a handful of random Yahoo members can opt into thus far. The full version will be rolled out over the next few months.” Here’s the thing - if you have a MyYahoo page and you go to the link and say you want to look at it, it’s yours. And I swear it said I could look at it - now it says Upgrade Me! <LOL>

Anyway, here is what Yahoo! says about their new page:

A fresh new look
Newly designed Yahoo! modules
New page colors and themes

More flexibility and control
Drag and drop modules anywhere
See more stuff with a new four column layout

Save time with fewer clicks
Read articles without leaving your page
Get quick overviews with the editable Personal Assistant

Plus more…
Share your page with friends
Choose what you see with advanced settings

Check it out and if you already have MyYahoo, be careful what you click! Let me know what you think of it. I’ll write more about it in the coming days since I have it whether I wanted it or not! Yep - the joke is definitely on me.
