Yahoo has been spiraling down for the last year.

About a year ago, I noticed that some of the Groups navigation text had changed to a pale blue. WTF? I'm having a hard time reading it. Then I noticed that the navigation is split between the left and right sides of the screen. I navigate within a group on the left and between my groups on the right. The Admin interface needs work too. For spammers, how about a button that drops the spammer AND all their posts? A few hundred thousand Admins would thank you for implementing this.

Then I began seeing more and more animations. Yes, I realize that these are ads and ads pay the bit-freight but while I can recall the woman with the dread-locks dancing in silhouette, I can't recall the product. Would have been better to put up "Coca-Cola" or "Scotch-Tape" in large letters, with a lot of whitespace around it. If you add movement or color changes, make it VERY slow and VERY subtle. Load up the page with content and sneak the ad in.

I use Groups a lot (for Freecycle, check it out) the user and admin interfaces are awkward. I see occasional changes so it looks like someone it trying.

About 3 weeks ago, www.Yahoo.com was down for days. It still fails occasionally. This is amazing for a web-portal.

What's the matter? Too many managers? Too many PMP'ers? Too many meetings? "We need a meeting next month to discuss this."

-khome If you want to get the work done, hire more people who work; if you want more meetings, hire more managers. Your choice.
