Bert, I think once people are forced to use the new format they
will get used to it in a few days. In thinking about why I like
legacy better, I found it's because everything is better defined.
Each message is in a box. On the new system they all run together.

No, I wouldn't short G2Net based on that. People NEED their SI.

Yahoo is another matter. They have long impressed me by adding
a useful feature to their finance area every few weeks. I've set
up a portfolio of stocks and get headlines for the three most
recent stories for each. But recently many of these headlines
only refer to a TSC story available with a free trial. There
is no news content. To see what I mean, click here...
biz.yahoo.com
then click on one of the [$$ - free trial] headlines.

It's annoying enough, I'm looking for a site other than Yahoo.

Bert, I just tried the new SI again and see they put boxes
around messages. Much better. :)
I also like that stock info is just one click away.
Example
beta.siliconinvestor.com
I used to have to go to Yahoo for that.
