Yahoo! Mail has launched a newly designed Welcome page with a much heavier focus on social activity and less on news and messages, i.e. why you might traditionally access your inbox.
New feature “My Connections” contains messages from your most regular contacts, with the option to keep updated with their activities. Yahoo! properties such as Flickr will become an integrated part of the page, while the space will soon be opened up to third party applications.
Expect to see an influx of new applications once Yahoo! opens up their new smarter inbox in early 2009.
Check out the four minute video at the bottom of the article for a walk through of the changes.
