My Yahoo! Blog

Props to Rebecca for being an awesome editor. Keep those great suggestions coming.

homepage – my yahoo – need news video screen on homepage for news and i know my content editor ( rebecca) can do this for i have confidence in you. thanks EUEL //

The new My Yahoo is another huge step backwards. 1st you killed all useability in TV listings, then personal finance now you waste even more real estate..and don’t even have most of the modules working.

I used to use MY Yahoo for everything. I’m gone.

I don’t like the new setup for My Yahoo! page. It’s awful, especially the TV LISTINGS. It’s too narrow and I CAN’T SET IT TO START AT MY TIME. Everything is an hour off. The OLD yahoo page (which DOESN’T SUPPORT THE TV LISTINGS ANYMORE) gave me a perfect spread from 7-10 pm, all at a quick glance, in MY TIME (Central). NOW I have to scroll around and try to figure out the time difference, PLUS the spread is to small. I hate it. AND also? Half of the content boxes aren’t loading on the “new” page. I’ve used yahoo for years and years and years…and now I’m completely disappointed in the service.

I live in AZ and we do not change for daylight savings. My TV listings are 1 hour off in the new page.

Thanks
Bruce

I like the basic look of the new Beta page but I do not want that advertisment on it..

For lack of any better place to leave this comment…What is the deal with the alleged new TV listings? All my page shows is the time of day, which I can move back and forth. I selected my favorite channels, etc. but there are no listings appearing. So now I can’t get them on the old page and I can’t get them on the Beta page. Do you plan to fix this or leave it in the same bad shape it was the LAST time you “upgraded” the TV listings?

The Beta is cool with me, BUT, just as those before me said……..Fix the tv listings module!!!

NOW the TV Listings module won’t even let me “Select Favorites”. I’ve selected them about 12 times, clicked “Done”, and they STILL DONT SAVE. Still can’t change the time to local, either.

Please put everything back to the original format–the modules actually WORKED then, and the page layout was nice.

We’re working on the TV listings. See today’s post “TV listings update” for more info. Thanks.

I do like the new, sleeker look. But it could use a couple tweaks or expanded layout options.
The advertizing in the right column needs to go back to the top where it is less intrusive. Annoying ads in the content will not increase hits except by accident. And that will further annoy users. Not a plus. At least give the user the option where it goes.
And return the option for narrow & wide columns. Many of the things, like reference dictionary, weather, etc, do not need a wide column. But things like news & tv listings do need a wide column. I don’t want to add more pages to accommodate these.

My movie theaters are not listing. When I click theaters, nothing happens. Each theater I selected, used to display in this module with movies and times. Am I missing something or doing something wrong.

Otherwise, I like the new look and feel.

overall i like the new setup, except that some modules can not be moved(stock quotes and others).also it loads so slow and when one wishes to read one article like from one module then go back to my yahoo home page, unlike the old setup you push back page and it goes back to where you were. now it goes back to top of page so if you want to see a couple things at bottom you have to wait for entire page to reload and scroll down to where you wre a couple times, it get tiresome waiting every time as it loads so slow……..

DEAR MS REBEACCA HOPEFULLY I SPELLED YOUR NAME RITE IF I DID N`T SORRY STOPPED TA SAY HI TO U & EVERYONE AT YAHOO THANKS FROM A DISABLED AUTO WORKER!!HAPPY NEW YR`S.EVERY ONE!!!

Just want to test this

I have the same opinion as everybody else…the new My Yahoo looks great, but NO TV LISTINGS! PLEASE fix this soon!
