do you yahoo?

[arguchik]

what the hell is going on with yahoo today? i just logged in to read the morning news, check email, etc. and every single news story on my front page is a week old. my horoscope is a week old. the comics are from yesterday. lately, i have noticed that my "new mail" indicator isn't working properly, either--it never says i have new mail, but when i click on it to open my mailbox i find out that i actually do have new mail.

think they're getting hit by cyberpredators?

I haven't used my Yahoo mail in a long, long time, but I use my My Yahoo page(s) constantly. It's a regular thing for some of the modules (news and blog feeds on my top-level page) to be old, but whatever is old is usually up-to-date when I get back to the page after reading something that IS up-to-date. Refreshing the page sometimes works, but since the latency is on the server side, I think, what I do with the browser doesn't matter much.

Maybe something has changed for them, but I haven't noticed a change in behavior for me yet. Everything presently looks up to date, except for the feed from Mother Jones (http://motherjones.com/).
