My Yahoo! Blog

Hello, I’m your content wrangler.

There’s a great big world of content out there—how do you find the best stuff for your page? One option is to browse our content directory. As your editor, I roam the Internet looking for the best content available across all kinds of subjects. When I find feeds from publishers who are reliable authorities on a topic or who have something unique to say on the subject, I round them up into categories where I hope they’ll be easy for you to find.

– Like to cook? Check out the Lifestyles category and dig into the Food & Drink feeds.
– Follow tech trends? Pick your specialty from Technology.

My goal is to supply you with feeds that bring you frequent, relevant, compelling content on the topics that interest you most.

Our content directory has undergone many evolutions during the years I’ve been part of the My Yahoo! team. We’re trying to keep it easy to use, yet comprehensive—a tough balance to strike. Tell me what you think. And if you don’t find what you need, remember, the directory is a fraction of all the content available for your page. Use the content search box to explore the millions of available feeds.

I’ll be back to talk about more of the things a My Yahoo! editor spends her time doing. But for now, it’s back to the wild, wild Web.

Giddyup,

Rebecca
My Yahoo! Editor

Stars and stripes for your page.

Just in time for US Independence Day, we have a new patriotic theme. Celebrate the holiday by adding stars and stripes to your page.

While you’re there, check out the other new colors and textures we’ve added (Personalize this page > Appearance > Change color).

My Yahoo!, the sequel.

What’s better than having your own My Yahoo! page? Having more than one! You decide what each page contains – name them what you want and use your creative flair to personalize each one. It’s a great way to get at more information more quickly.

There are endless ways to use multiple pages… by hobby, sport, news topic, family interests, etc. Need ideas? Here are some from the My Yahoo! team:

My Personal Stuff / My Work Stuff / Funny Things
Music / Travel Dreams / Game Stuff / News
My Main Page / My Local Stuff / My Sports

A few tips to make this easier:
- Name your page whatever you want. Simply click the title bar, and start typing.
- Drag and drop content from one page to another.

What will your second page be?
