Yahoo! Site Redesign - Some users are not pleased
Looks like Yahoo! has done it again. A new site design. Does anyone still use Yahoo!? Yes they do apparently. As an IT professional many of my clients still use Yahoo! as their homepage and utilize Yahoo! for email. Every time Yahoo! makes a change to their site the complaints start to flow in like crazy.
Just when people start to get used to a certain design and look, they change it. Many customers report that they were perfectly happy with the old Yahoo! and are sick of having a learning curve just to check email or navigate around the site. Yahoo! should probably take a few lessons from Google and keep it simple. A clean, uncluttered interface is always a nice thing. If users want to clutter up their homepage with gadgets and buttons that should be their option.
Yahoo!, get the clue, listen to your users and stop trying to be everything to everyone. Keep it fresh and simple and maybe, just maybe you’ll regain some of that search engine dominance that you once had.
