There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

Why would yahoo choose to make their sites less user friendly.?

It seems over the past few months, changes to Yahoo's formats have made it considerably more difficult to use.

    Yahoo uses the latest version of HTML and Javascript with all its features. They assume that most users have the latest browsers, fast internet connections, and a lot if storage. They are not going to limit themselves due to a small percentage with problems. You only see the problems here. For the majority with no problems there is no posting. I have never had a problem with the new features and once you get used to them you can see they are actually better.

    The newest version of Yahoo! Answers is user friendly it just takes some time to adapt to it.
