Re: yahoo chat and text locking up my email And now here's the latest (I must be one of the lucky ones to be on the top of the list for rollouts).
In addition to the "Chat and Mobile Text" box on the left, there is now a "Get Update From Others" box on the right side. It will display the names of three of the people that you have written to (not from what I can tell, just those in your address book). You can close them, and then a new list of three names appears in rotation. It took me 15 minutes to go through and close EVERY name that I've written to so now while the feature still appears there are NO names appearing.
Now, imagine the possibilities. You write to your girlfriend, your wife will know just because it will appear on your yahoo mail homepage. How about DivorcesRUs, I'veGotAFlatulenceProblem, etc. The possibilities are endless.
It's becoming the swiss army knife of mail sites. Pretty soon you won't be able to find your mailbox though all the additional unwanted services that reduce your privacy. |
