“…Curst be he that moves my bones.” Thought about what your tombstone will say? Well, today’s the day. After you’ve penned you’re parting words, read up on our not-so-morbid updates.

• Fancy signatures: If you’ve got a MyBlogLog profile, you can now create an email signature that shows friends and colleagues all the Web 2.0 services you use and have profiles on (must be services you’ve entered into MyBlogLog). Think instant access for your friends to your del.icio.us, Jumpcut, Technorati, and Facebook profiles with a click of the icons in your email signature. Go to “edit profile” on your MyBlogLog account to create one.
• Don’t forget the popcorn!: As winter rolls in, our 2007 Holiday Movie Guide will become your one-stop-guide for your seat at the megaplex. The guide has a browse-able movie carousel, a user-ranked top movie list, video playlists of movie trailers and clips, photo galleries, and access to fun factoids like “Bet You Didn’t Know.” Make sure to vote on the Bix poll for your all time fave holiday flick!
• Healthier living: Yahoo! Health has a new look and feel, making it easier to find answers to your health questions on diet & fitness to conditions & diseases (there are 75 topics across five categories). With the improved search capabilities, you’ll also find both articles and videos to help you take charge of your health.
• That’s classic: For those who haven’t switched to the new Yahoo! Mail, you may have seen some of the updates we’ve made to Yahoo!’s Classic Mail. We’ve added auto-save to your email drafts, so no need to worry about computer malfunctions losing your work. With the new flag column, you can easily flag important messages with one click. And get more organized by renaming or deleting personal folders within the folder view. We’ve even deleted some of the features you told us were not as useful. For visually impaired users, we’ve enhanced our screenreader capabilities with easier navigation, html headings to help navigate the page, more shortcut keys, and hidden text that lets users know when there’s a picture or attachment in the email. Check out all the changes we made
  and read about what else the team has been up to.

Please bring back the attachment preview – there were so many instance where we did not have accesss to Word or Excel on the Computer we were using to check the Yahoo Mail.

Please allow users to choose whether they want to keep some features individually

That was an extremely valuable feature for some

Also – some people are afraid to open Word attachments because of
virus of trojans. This was a safe way to get some idea of what was being sent.

For those who used this feature – it was immensely convenient.

Again, not everyone has Word or Excel on every Computer they are using at the moment :-(

Hei there

I second that comment above my own as regards to the preview of mail attachments – it is/was such a useful thing indeed.
Keep so well. Happy Autumn for ye all. Rii :)

PS.
I do still have my blog on 360, too.
