Yahoo Testing A New Home Page Design

[Brandon]

Yahoo appears to be testing a new home page design. Techno-Net captured it on a video and posted that video on YouTube for all to see.
Here are the changes we noticed in this new design test:

• Cleaner User Interface
• Search Bar Sticks At The Top
• Left Menu Bar Is Static
• Remove Story Blocks In One Click
• Top News Image More Fluid In Transitions Of Stories
• Middle Content Section Scrolls
• Middle Content Section Has News Filters

Here is that video:

Seems like Marissa Myer isn't playing any games. Flickr was updated recently as well.

Perhaps an attempt to narrow the gap between its chief competitor, Google. There is, however, more than a narrow margin. Google is the #1 most visited site in the world. Facebook is #2, YouTube is #3, and Yahoo is #4. I don;t know that a simple makeover will accomplish their goals.

I don't like the new Yahoo! Mail layout at all

I will kill 1,000,000 kittens if they force people to upgrade Yahoo mail.
