Yahoo Finance gets a face-lift - NOT!!!
I read your article "Yahoo Finance gets a face-lift" with interest. As a user of their message boards since their inception, I find the new changes useless. Most investors that I know have established a list of posters whose opinion they have come to trust. If that investor replies to a message in the new format you will never see it without looking at an entire thread. Further they have destroyed the ability to see messages chronologically. If you casually look at some of the boards for messages over the last week, I think you'll see that many if not most are very unhappy. As a systems engineer myself, it is apparent that yahoo developers have no understanding of how their product is used by the customer. Yahoo has turned a trusted tool into a mess. and most of us have set up alternatives on other sites as a result. I for one will never post on them again and I don't think I am alone.

First CNBC changes format to enhance "Glitz" and reduce content and now Yahoo follows suite. Change is not always progress.
