I like the Classic Yahoo home page. I’m familiar with the layout and I enjoy what it has to offer. However, I feel that by Yahoo not updating the news etc, that I am being blackmailed into accepting their new format. I suppose that ultimately, it’s a numbers game. If enough people are forced into accepting the change, then, it will go ahead. However, I feel like it’s a bit like changing the format of my regular newspaper; if it becomes so far removed from the original, I may aswell change newspapers! Maybe Yahoo assumes that people are unlikely to switch for fear of changing their email address. Well I hope that they taken into consideration, that if someone does go to the trouble of changing their email account, it would be nigh-on impossible to get them to change back again. Personally, I also hope that enough people will resist the change, or perhaps they will move to an alternative provider. Message to Yahoo: Don’t let your economic ambitions outweigh your customer’s loyalty.

My ATT email account is connected with Yahoo and I have to constantly look at advertising on my e-mail pages even though I pay to have ATT internet service. A big JOKE!!
Yahoo sucks.

Well, it’s FREE. Are the not allowed to cover their costs with advertising?
