    I don't like it. I can't find my questions or my answers.

    The one solution I've found is to scroll down the menu at the left to "international" and choose the United Kingdom--which has the old format.

    Cheers,

    1.) I think it stinks

    2.) If Yahoo actually had any genuine concern for what any established user thinks,

    they would have asked us to voluntarily try their new asinine system.

    They made no such polite requests.

    3.) If Yahoo actually cared what established users think, they would have told at least one staff member to write a formal survey and send it out to established users.

    They did no such thing.

    4.) If Yahoo Staff actually has some slight interest in what people think of the new system, and they are too lazy or indifferent to actually send out a survey to established members, then they can very easily read the superabundance of almost exclusively negative comments from thousands and thousands of people - maybe millions by now, who have written very clear critical rejections of the new system.

    5.) Yahoo Staff actually invites people to make comments on the new lousy format,

    BUT THEY DO IT IN A WAY THAT IS ALMOST FUNNY!

    They invite people to comment on the new awful changes,

    BUT we would have to use the new lousy format to comment!!!!!!

    Therefore,

    it is entirely obvious that Yahoo has not even the slightest genuine concern for what established members have to say about this savagely defective collection of idiotic changes.

    I would like for Yahoo to stay in business, and to provide a good product.

    They appear to be devoted to doing NEITHER.

    Peace be with you.

    I agree, I do not like it one bit. I can't find other questions to be able to vote on them. I can't find my connection's questions to answer them. I used to be able to at least give myself a vote but I can't do that anymore. All I can do is answer questions generally and trust that somebody else is finding what I cannot find.

    It is harder to find our questions and answers, or see my contacts. I don't like the new format yet, but hope they are still working to make it better...

    its a year later. and while i didnt like the changes, then, some of the changes do make more sense. i hate upgrades from microsoft, they are seemingly going to take away or freedoms of speech. and some of the changes might be fore the uses of smart phones

    I am getting used to it. In a way it is actually better. No spell check in the way, allowing the use of images in a question or answer, comments are now actually treated as answers after a question is resolved, etc.

    I wont use it anymore as soon as they "update" the canada site (which is what I use now). To me, it is absolutely UN-usable now.
