Yahoo! Mail Emulates 404.Gov – Enters Death Spiral

Spot the difference - both are unusable!
Spot the difference – both are unusable!

Since about October (coincidence?), Yahoo! Mail users have been increasingly vocal about the poor quality and unusable interface (sounds familiar) of Yahoo!’s ‘new and improved’ eMail service…..

But that was just the beginning – in a further emulation of 404.Gov’s #EpicFail, users awoke this morning to…. No mail at all – Yesirree Bob, Yahoo! has taken down an Email service used by millions for almost 20 years during prime time on a weekday. Users are FURIOUS!

Could this be be the final death knell to a once proud Internet icon? Is it deliberate? Is CEO Marissa Mayer a Google plant tasked with their destruction? Has she hired the expert Web Demolition team from 404.Gov? Watch that space (because there’s no mail to look at)!
