If you’ve seen the new Yahoo! Homepage, you’d be familiar with the fantastic new design of the Yahoo! Today App that showcases content that keeps you on top of what’s happening. In a few days, we will adopt this new design and automatically upgrade the current My Yahoo! Today App. Even better, you’ll be able to use all the great My Yahoo! customization tools you currently enjoy to tailor the App for your page.


Since you can adjust the width of the columns on your page, you’ll be able to expand or contract the column the Today App is in to change how many stories display. It’s up to you! Check it out…


Another feature for the new Today App (and my personal favorite) is that you’ll be able to watch many of the videos featured in the App without leaving the page. That’s a big deal for me because I’ll be able to tune into a video while browsing my other feeds on the page!

Stay tuned as this upgrade will be released in a few days. If you have the Today App on your page already, you don’t have to do anything but sit back, relax, and enjoy the new App. If not, be sure to add it to your page. We’ll re-post to let you know it’s live and tell us what you think!

I’m a little confused. Will we be able to keep our My Yahoo! homepage long-term, or will we be converted to the new Yahoo! homepage that was recently released? What is the future of the My Yahoo! homepage? I haven’t seen that topic addressed. I’ve only seen that people with the regular Yahoo homepage will be switched to the new Yahoo! homepage in the near future.

Thanks for any clarification you can provide.

J,

Yes, you will be able to keep your My Yahoo! page just as it is; we are only upgrading the Today App.

We have a series of features launching over the coming months that should be very exciting. Stay tuned for those and, as always, we look forward to hearing from you about what you want on the page. After all, it is your My Yahoo!.

Good question J. I’m curious to see that answered also about the My Yahoo homepage. As long as it is not a MSN homepage….smiles. The Today App does look nice. Looking forward to it…
