Yahoo improves My Web 2.0
Yahoo! My Web 2.0 is an extension of the My Web personal search service. My Web 2.0 lets you save your bookmarks and share your bookmarks with family, friends and colleagues. You can also discover new things by browsing what’s popular or interesting to you. Now there are several improvements to be seen.
Read on to learn more about the improvements of My Web 2.0.
Whenever you log on to My Web 2.0, you get access to your three most recently saved pages. The old homepage merely provided a link to “My Pages.”
The new My Web 2.0 homepage has more help and tips available. That’s a good idea, because the user interface isn’t exactly intuitive.
Tagging bookmarks is an important part of this kind of service. Tagging makes it easier for you to navigate large numbers of bookmarks. At least equally important – tags make it possible for users to make sense of each other’s bookmarks.
Now you can edit 20 bookmarks at a time. This is great for changing the tags on imported bookmarks.
Another new feature is the option to search everybody’s tags. One of the main purposes of services like My Web 2.0 is sharing, and searching the tags of other users definitely improves sharing. In their blog, Yahoo promises to keep improving the sharing features.
My Web to go is a new feature especially for bloggers. It’s a badge that lets you insert your most recently saved pages on your blogs.
These new features are launched not long after Yahoo bought the hugely popular social bookmarking tool de.lici.ous.
