Pay attention to him.

Do your work because you enjoy it, not for Carl Ichan or Steve Ballamer.

Are you not listening? Are you trying to trash your client base before Steve Ballamer and Carl Ichan take you over?

What are you thinking? Thousands and thousands of us want our old homepages back. You made us waste millions of manhours yesterday trying to find our old bookmarks and make the crap new page “fit” information we had stored for years. You’re making grandmothers have to think about things like “optimizing the page for 1024 x 768 and higher screen resolutions.”

Who needs it? I havn’t seen an ad on My Yahoo since I switched to Firefox with Adblocker 3 or 4 years ago. My old page was clean, orderly and had everything I needed right there.

Yesterday when I turned on my machine, somebody had trashed my desktop, spewed things everywhere, stolen bookmarks, hid my bank account from me, in short, my office was demolished.

This is a little like the “New Coke” debacle of a few years ago. Either let us have the choice of going back to My Yahoo “classic”, or watch as thousands, if not millions of us switch to Pepsi (Google, in your case).

Your blunder will go down in business history books under the heading “Companies who screwed their client base for no particular reason–and paid the price”.

How come nobody has answered any of my emails? You are proving to be the worst company I’ve ever dealt with. I’ve been here 10 years, and now, in 24 hours, you’ve killed all the good will you’ve built with me in that time.

Could I have some human response, some press release admitting that you were wrong, your sorry for trashing millions of desktops yesterday, and that you’re going to make it right–letting us have our old pages back?

We have lives–we can’t learn new software whenever you (or your new Microsoft masters) decide we need to. Microsoft is why I bought a Mac. I just need my computer to be familiar and work. I don’t need the latest whiz bang processor and bandwidth hungry thing.

Give us our old page back.

And apologize.

Nick

so the search page is a scrolling layer of horizontal images and vertical image topics

ex:
layer zero is a mashup app of below selections before getting the search result if its a complicated query
ex: robot+japan+emotion = web result

layer one is about Location (globe/geography) with maximize and minimize or zoom

layer two is about things (consumer/manufacturing) with zoom
move the slider left-right and select a image which is associated with a category

layer three is about living beings (animals/humans) with zoom

their can be many vertical layers

maybe the above whole thing is very silly but its just to further brainstorm beyond language and keywords
