wiseheartHave you seen the facelift for Yahoo Groups? Do you hate it half as much as I do? Then you hate it with the passion of a thousand burning sons! God, I'm pissed off beyond belief!
All right, I do understand that they need to make everything i-Pad compatible in these days. Bad enough for us dinosaurs who still use proper computers with proper keyboards. But did they have to remove all the photo albums (after they'd already removed the possibility to place albums within albums a couple of years ago, no matter how practical it was)? No all photos are in a big jumble, without any recognisable order.
Also, they've pulled the header pics from each group and replaced it with some random pictures that have nothing to do with the group. And the group description is no longer on the front page. You've got to look for it specifically.
But what's the most annoying part, they also changed the My Group page. Until this morning, the expanded version showed the header pic of each group you were a member of, under which they gave the activities of the last 7 days: new messages, new files, new photos, new members, and so on. Now there's just a simple number, indicating the new messages. And what's worse, you have no way to return to the expanded version - or if there is one, I haven't found it.
If I didn't need my groups as safety storage (Files section), I'd be considering deleting them all. In their current form, it's just too bothersome to look up anything there.
