Happy Sweet 16, Yahoo.
Yahoo mail turns 16 today, and in celebration Yahoo is giving all their mail users presents.
- A new interface, with mail threading.
- 1 TB of storage.
- New actions on hover, including deleting and searching.
- Disposable addresses for all.
- Pretty photos from flickr.
The screenshots of the new interface look modern and useable. We’ll see how this plays out.
Do you know what one of the most-used words in the comments about the “present” on the help pages of Yahoo is. The word is “sucks”. And sadly, the comments are right.
Yahoo threw out many features that made its mail comfortable. Now it may look good on a smartphone, but it is disgusting for people used to the former comfort.
Disposable addresses are a premium functionality, did they extend it to the free version?
I can’t seem to find the info or how to use them with a free account.
