#2Yahoo's tumblr blog also makes the basic mistake of not linking back to the main website.

#3I hope to god Yahoo consciously decided to eschew the current trends of flat, minimal, content first design that is perpetuating through the industry. Windows Phone, iOS 7, and plenty of other leading UI designs are shedding the bloat and focusing on content first. If they didn't do it on purpose, it means they are still the old Yahoo. If they did, maybe they know something about their target demographic that I don't...

#6I'm really not liking the new feel. The dark background images make reading the content way too hard -- and I can only assume their goal is to replace the background with large ads for site takeovers once in a while.

You don't think the new Yahoo designs are following the flat trend?

I for one thought they did "content-first" right. Looking at the new sports.yahoo.com, a lot of information can be obtained without scrolling down the screen, and much of the visual clutter is localised by with background blurring.
I'll take this over the "huge text" startup-style any day.

#10I give them credit for trying darker background, but the new designs are quite unsightly. I also find the fixed background image that doesn't scroll with the page incredibly distracting.
It's actually causing me great physical discomfort to use these new sites.
