Marissa Mayer, CEO of Yahoo, sent to his corporate blog announcing and explaining the changes to the appearance of Yahoo. Introduced the "new" Yahoo with the following: "designed to be more intuitive and personal, the new experience of Yahoo is all about your interests and preferences. Because the flow of information have become the paradigm of choice on the web, we are introducing a newsfeed with infinite scroll, which allows you to experience a virtually infinite feed of news articles. If you are a sports fanatic or entertainment buff, you can easily customize your newsfeed for your interests. And, to make it even more social, you can login with your Facebook or Yahoo ID to obtain items from thousands of news sources, as well as those shared by your friends Yahoo!.
In general, Yahoo still has the same information that has always had, but is presented in a way that will resonate Mayer and the hope of society with users. Even users of web savvy tech still use Yahoo as their source for news, simply because over the years he has maintained a quite intuitive and fun. It is not Google, so one never felt compelled to try things on Yahoo and instead may simply click through the main news articles of the day.
In addition to the new features described by Mayer, Yahoo has also made her look more consistent across the various platforms. Yahoo you see on your desktop is going to be almost identical to what you see on your smartphone or tablet. For those who disliked the dreaded Yahoo Mobile site, this will certainly be a welcome change. However, as with all changes to popular services, many commentators are up in arms about the new look of Yahoo. Of course, it's always the people who are unhappy that complain the loudest. Most people might actually like the changes-but we'll have to wait and see how that turns out.
