With the new format imposed on all the sites do I have any choice but to give Yahoo up completely?

The new format is confusing and harder to use. Frankly, it takes all the fun out of it and only makes me angry that Yahoo is being so dictatorial. So I am going to abandon you to your own frequently extremist devices.

So long, folks. It was fun, but the Yahoo people have killed their golden goose.

    I would not continue doing something that made me angry.

    Yahoo is a company and can do as they please and you as a consumer can refuse yo use their product.

    The new format took a little time for me to adjust, but it's not bad and there are some things I like about it. I no longer find it hard to use.

    Obviously not enough adventising revenue in previous formats. If everyone takes your stance, Yahoo must re-look at their format as users have the power not the supplier.

    "A bird in the hand" and all that.

    Kind of reminds me of Liberalism-change things regardless of whether or not the people want the change.

    Your right they have. The only thing they actually had going for them.

    And they had to screw this up. So much for the left minded view.

    The left minded view? I hate it too, its the right that is responsible for it, they always try to change the good things.

    See how dumb that sounds.

    I agree. Its not good for me either. And there is nothing wrong with me. I simply liked the one that wasn't broken.

    The new format works fine for the rest of us.

    The problem must be with "you".
