Today is Penny Day, when we pay homage to the most wee of our coinage. It might not buy you much today, but how else could you give someone your two cents or compensate them for their thoughts? What would the frugal among you pinch instead? But for Pete's sake, if you don't see Honest Abe staring up at you from the pavement, just keep right on walking. Here's what we picked up this week:
- Photo Mailer: Ever downloaded photos from someone's email and wish you hadn't? The new image preview feature in Yahoo! Mail will help you avoid future said hassles. It helps make it easier for you to preview photo attachments, right within your email. Receive multiple images? You can preview them as a slideshow or as a full-sized image before you download, which you can do in one fell swoop or just selected images. And, as always, you'll have the comfort of Norton AntiVirus scans to make sure they're A-OK. Watch the screencast here.
- My Flickr: If you're as addicted to Flickr as I am, you get moving right over to My Yahoo! to add the new Flickr module. Not only can you view your latest snaps, you can check out the "activity" tab to see when you have comments or responses to your comments. All this without ever having to leave your My Yahoo! page. What's more, you'll have access to your sets, your groups, your favorites, your contacts' photos, and even Flickr's “Interestingness” feature. BTW: While you're dolling up your My Yahoo! page, you might want to show that your colors don't run by trying on the Memorial Day theme this weekend.
