Yahoo Getting Stale

I’m lazy. This must be an only reason my browser’s homepage is still my.yahoo.com, set 10 or so years ago, instead of Netvibes or some other hot site.  I rarely read stuff here, relying on social filtering – i.e. if something is of interest to me, it will likely show up in my feed reader, through a trusted individual’s blog.

Today I semi-automatically clicked on a news item and had that deja vu feeling… no wonder:

 

“Full coverage” (whatever the source) updated 4 days ago,  Reuters updated 4 days ago.  Not displayed, but AP Europe updated 3 days ago, San Jose Merc 3 days ago, Contra Costa times 3 days ago ..etc.

Is My Yahoo dead?

Update (116): Read about Start Pages / Widgets on the Read/Write Web.
