Wanna feel old? Luke and Laura got married 26 years ago today in what remains the highest-rated hour in daytime TV history. Glad Luke’s perm is history, too. Now go check out this week’s dramatic updates.

• Searching for your plus-one: Have you tried online? Yahoo! Personals has gotten a winter makeover so you can find that someone special in time for your New Year’s kiss. We’ve updated the page with a simple view of potential dates through profile cards and enhanced searching and matching features like “We Match” and “I Match” that pair up the most suitable profiles. We even added a two-column profile display that allows you to organize profiles, send email, and icebreakers all from the search results page. Go on, be a multi-tasking dater!
• Let the shopping begin: Cutting through the clutter of gift options just got easier with some new holiday shopping features on Yahoo!. Check out the new Green Holiday Gift Guide on Yahoo! Green. It offers expert-recommended Earth-friendly ideas for your eco-diva sister, gadget geek father, or green grandparent. Over on Yahoo! Shopping, a new social shopping feature lets you swap and share coupon deals and experiences with other shoppers. And don’t miss the new product category browse pages that integrate buying guides, reviews and ratings, price comparisons, and Yahoo! Answers all in one place to help you find that thoughtful gift.
• IM plus MY: Now you can IM your pals while you’re checking out your My Yahoo! page. Noticed that there will be back-to-back reruns of “Grey’s Anatomy” according to your TV listings module? Invite the gang over via Yahoo! Messenger for a marathon run of McDreamy and Chinese take out — all from your My Yahoo! page. It’s a lightweight version of Yahoo! Messenger, so you may not see all the bells and whistles you’re used to. But you can drag and drop the module wherever you want so you can keep everything you need above the fold! Add the module here.

This IM plus MY is a really useful feature. The more Yahoo dives into integrating her zillion tools, the more the users will benefit from your efforts. Thank you again!
