Yahoo has launched its new front
page. The beta page’s new
features include a music button, alphabetized product listing, single search
box, a new search tab, and the Buzz log which tracks the most popular searches
on the Web and is continuously updated. Consumers can also add content to
My
Yahoo! by clicking the "Add to
My Yahoo!" buttons or text links now found on pages across the Web, on sites
such as BoingBoing, CBS MarketWatch, craigslist, Forbes.com,
Gizmodo, iVillage, The New York Times, and many others
Along with the updated Yahoo front page the company also launched a
customized RSS page. The page enables users to track virtually anything that’s
newsworthy to them on the Web by topic.
For example, a Yahoo! News search for election coverage can be easily
added to My Yahoo! so consumers can easily track the latest headlines.
Additionally, the company has created a custom database of more than 150,000
content and service choices that consumers can search, browse and add to their
page.
Beta versions of both pages will be rolled out on a phased basis, and the
company expects to make the products generally available in the weeks following.
