Yahoo Previews New Homepage Design

Yahoo is previewing their new homepage layout and has a video from founders David Filo and Jerry Yang explaining the change. As with all other recently launched sites, Yahoo has moved to the wider 1024 width, up from 800. It’s a pain resizing the broswer window all the time so the sooner everyone (including uss) moves to 1028, the better. The new Yahoo have navigation button along the left side and Yahoo services such as Mail, Messenger, Music, Movies and Weather to the top right. It’s not bad looking but one does wish for the good old days when yahoo was the search and directory giant with a no-fuss inteerface like Google currently has. Oh well, Yahoo went content and Google is sticking with search.

Nobody talks about why so many retired people suddenly care deeply about things that seem trivial – the garden, the bird feeder, the perfect sourdough – but psychologists say these aren’t hobbies, they’re the first projects in decades where the only metric of success is personal satisfaction

Psychology says parents who feel unloved by their adult children are often actually deeply loved — but they’re measuring love by the standards of dependent childhood rather than the autonomy of adulthood

The happiest retirees aren’t the ones with elaborate bucket lists – they’re the ones who gave themselves permission to be interested in small things nobody else finds impressive

People who prefer eating alone at restaurants aren’t lonely. They discovered that solitude in a public place is one of the few spaces where you can exist without performing, and once you find that, a table for one stops feeling like something that needs explaining.
