How do I add or subtract items from the menu on the side of Yahoo!?

Yahoo did not include a way to modify your links on the left in this unfriendly new home page. Yahoo claims it will eventually customize for you by your clicks as their algorithm gets to know all about you--which is actually a way to custom market to you. But, you might try this to modify the favorites: Some people have had luck going to the ca.yahoo.com site (Canada's site) which still has the classic Yahoo homepage. There you can click on the gear to add or subtract sites and then save. When you go back to the US Yahoo homepage, the changes will hopefully stick for you. This is not a guarantee. It worked for me, but others have said it reverts back to what Yahoo wants there. I've just stopped using the New Yahoo as my homepage and bookmarked my frequent "go to" sites. You can send Yahoo feedback about the new page by clicking the sponsored question at the top of the Yahoo Products category in Answers. Good luck.
