Is there a way to set the Y! Answers feed to display the newest (latest) questions FIRST?

Every time I come on to Y! Answers, in my fave category (Cats), the same Questions display, day after day, at the top of my screen. I have to scroll through pages and pages and pages to find any that were asked in the last few hours. My Data is metered, so I feel this is a huge waste of my data, time, and money....not to mention, if I can help with my Answer to a frantic question about someone s cat, the cat s dead before I can offer my advice (cuz the question is days old). :/ So, is there a way to set the newest questions to appear first? Thanks in advance. :)

    Underneath the "Special Feature" there are the words "Discover" and "Answer". Click on "Answer" and the latest questions appear.

    You can go to any category and be sure Answer is underlined Not Discover, if it is Discover underlined just click Answer to change it.

    You can pin your favorite categories.......... Click the white pin at the top so it turns orange.

    Then it will be on the left side of pages so you can just click it there. That will bring up the freshest questions in that category.

    You can use the Customize feed too and choose what you want to see, go to Answers Home or at the top of a category look to the right and click Customize Feed, check your Choices and then Apply. /dir/index?sid=396546020
