Yahoo Make-up

While logging-in to my Yahoo Mail Account I was greeted by a new interface for yahoo mail, they call it "yahoo mail beta" (so much for creating really exciting names for new products). The new interface was quite good, it looks a lot like the Opera Web browser or the Firefox 2.0 interface with all those tabs. My first log-in  to the new Yahoo mail was quite slow maybe due to my ISP an my Browser I think it may be that Firefox is "Caching" the page for faster loading time. While logging into the new yahoo mail, I was greeted with boy sitting in a bouncing green balloon.In my opinion,  it would have been better if yahoo put their smiling face logo instead of that boy in a green balloon it just doesn't make any sense (it's not Yahoo-like to do something like that). Although it would be a good idea if yahoo would actually offer users to choose or costumize that log-on thing.

The new interface is quite more attractive that the old one, you can just drag and drop a mail from your inbox to one of your folders at the side (now, that's cool!). You can also use hotkeys now, although this cannot be changed by the user yet. Although this Yahoo mail beta is still hmm.. a BETA. I think Yahoo mail has made an excellent decision to upgrade their GUI, it's something new and it's  convenient.

I think yahoo made such a decision to keep yahoo mail users from going to the G-mail side. Al though I would really have liked it if they did Upgrade also the Mail size (currently 1GB) to 2GB just like G-mail.

Let's just wait and see what G-mail will do to answer this move by Yahoo.
