    Hi All,

    Just noticed Yahoo! is testing a new design for their homepage - looks more like a portal page - I quite like it. I'm off to play with it. I don't think I need to provide a link do I? ;)

    I know they always had a very simple design before so it was fast but this one is slick.

    Not everywhere actually. I still get the old design and know quite a few other people who still get the old design also.

    I can still see the old design aswell. I prefer the old design, but then I guess that is just because I am use to it.

    Kinda sucks - the only link to the directory is from the All Yahoo Services page

    http://docs.yahoo.com/docs/family/more/

    Wonder if there's going to be another drop in directory traffic like the last time they updated their home page :mad:

    Sigh I just washed it with soap and nothing still. Well guess I will have to wait until they decide to let me see it. JK :)

    I wish it would show up here. I actually like the look, but they still give us the same old crappy one here.

    That's odd, I can't see it in firefox, but I can see the new Yahoo homepage in IE.

    I have a feeling they may only be testing it at first with IE users or something as I have tried refreshing my Firefox browser and still can't see a new site.

    The new homepage needs some work IMHO. Some of the words overlap and cannot be read and I hate having to scroll on the bottom bar just to get to the other side of page. That sucks.
    Yahoo is doing this so it can fit more ads on homepage .... How sad ..... dumb ad industry ruins everything

    LabDog3, what screen size and resolution are you using? I'm on a 17inch using 1024 X 768 and it looks fine.
