    No, they are not gone. Yahoo is just hiding them from you as part of their suicide bid this weekend. They are trying to kill themselves before Microsoft takes them over.

    What makes you think they were "your" bookmarks anyway? They were not. They belonged to Yahoo. The name "My Yahoo" was a cruel joke.

    Millions of manhours were lost yesterday by people like you and me who had to spend the day looking for information that we'd had at our fingertips for years.

    Yahoo ****** us. Yes, I wrote "****". If they have the time to censor this message, they have the time to read a business book that says "if you screw your customers, they will leave you." They missed that day in business school I guess.

    I'm leaving for Google. Like thousands of others. Follow us. Yahoo has screwed us.

    I wrote this to the feedback site:

    Dear Yahoo,

    It's been 24 hours now. I've been looking for news everywhere that you've come to your senses and will allow us to revert to our old "my yahoo" pages.

    Are you not listening? Are you trying to trash the client base before Steve Ballamer and Carl Ichan take you over?

    What the **** are you thinking? Thousands and thousands of us want our old homepages back. You made us waste millions of manhours yesterday trying to find our old bookmarks and make the crap new page "fit" information we had stored for years.

    Your blunder will go down in business history books under the heading "Companies who ****** their client base for no particular reason--and paid the price".

    How come nobody has answered any of my emails? You are the worst company I've ever dealt with. I've been here 10 years, and now, in 24 hours, you've killed all the good will you've built with me in that time.

    Could I have a human respond to this?

    Regards,

    n*c*v*l*r*@yahoo.com
