Site Review: The New Yahoo Page

By khey | Sep 19, 2008

Yahoo is making a major upgrade on their website. Now, you won’t be able to search for websites, images, and videos alone – searching for music becomes a lot easier too. With the integration of Rhapsody, music downloads is as easy as 1-2-3.

And along with this new and in-demand search tool, Yahoo is integrating major changes on its website’s appearance. Such website is being tested right now by selected US, France, UK, and India users. Finding your favorite song is fast and simple. You can even play it in the browser to enjoy it soon enough.

However, don’t expect a total overhaul of the website. But just the same, the new Yahoo layout is worth checking out. Its refreshing look and added functionalities are certainly going to be a delight to avid internet users. What might have pushed Yahoo to change their homepage is the impending merge with Google.

One other big update in Yahoo’s website, as far as functionality is concerned, is on its mail preview. Now, you won’t be able to see only your Yahoo mailbox in the homepage. It is possible to see your Gmail and AOL accounts from there too. Yahoo’s new homepage can now truly work as a portal where you can manage everything at one place.

Overall, Yahoo’s new web design is more fluid and less cluttered. Advertisements can still be found in key areas, but the page now has more substance from the topics you’re interested in. It looks and works pretty much the same as the old MyYahoo page, although this one is more organized in the full sense of the word.

Right at the center of the page, interesting news, information, and articles are featured. All other things like weather, business, shopping, finances, and properties are neatly placed under the icons found on the side tool bar.
