Damn it, where's Yahoo for Linux? And I'm hoping Marissa Mayer decides to integrate it with Google Talk contacts eventually. And who uses a chat app full screen (like the Windows 8 one)?
Perhaps like this, off to the side.

Since no one is really posting about the apps: I just updated to the new Android version and it blows the old Yahoo Mail app away. The app feels more like an Android app, it looks better, it's snappier, the ads are gone, and is overall a much better experience. If this is representative of the type of improvements we will see, I am excited.
Looks much better, but did you find a way to disable notifications ? I didn't see any settings menu.
From there, it is "Account Settings" and then "Notification Settings"
Went to mail.yahoo.com to check my mail there (for the first time in months.) The landing page had nothing to do with mail and everything to do with piles of crap that Yahoo wants me to look at. Congratulations Marissa, that's the last time I'll even bother looking when you say "Look! We've changed." Next.
Granted, her name has a better brand than Yahoo still, but she's working on that. What you said sounded sexist, and I'm not even a feminist or a female.

FWIW, it does say: " Over the next few days , most mail users will begin to experience the new web version of Yahoo! Mail." [Emphasis added.] So we may still be seeing the old version. That said, they probably should have held off on the announcement until it was generally available.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
A good part of the value (for Yahoo) is the branding. It's more important to them right now to remind consumers that Yahoo still exists than cater to a handful of geeks with vanity domains.
Well then they're going to miss out on the people that vanguard these things. Having an @yahoo is embarrassing even for non-geeks.

What's with the microscopic screenshots? The hell am I supposed to take away from looking at that?
Anyone here who uses Yahoomail? Just curious. I stopped using them long back when they charged for some features while GMail still had them for free. Anyway, could anyone let us know how the new version is? I think my account has been deactivated due to inactivity (another irritating 'feature'). Their homepage doesn't clearly explain what has gotten better, and if it all, it is better than GMail. So would love to hea…

Fair enough. I've got a trigger finger, probably because Yahoo has such a proven record of disappointing. (Yes I did not read her letter in detail.)

Why did you pin this on Marissa instead of Yahoo? She signed her name to it, but if Bill Gates or Steve Jobs did that, you would have said Microsoft or Apple. Granted, her name has a better brand than Yahoo still, but she's working on that. What you said sounded sexist, and I'm not even a feminist or a female.
