I like the very new as of today the format of the business section. This is the way the it use to be. Please Keep this format
The Businesss just changed today like it use to be just like the other subcaption titles. This is the best format just like the other sections are now. Why you ever changed it made it worse. Don't reinvent the wheel keep the format like it is right now the way it use to be.

I'm just trying to determine how incompetent you people are. WEEKS ago, I wrote about how it was impossible to post a comment to your news
My "idea" is for you to fix your screwed up system so people who want to post comments on your news stories can. WEEKS ago, I wrote complaining about this. From the comments, I'm not the only one having this problem. Yet, YAHOO appears to be too incompetent, or too uncaring to do anything about it. That is why I've decided to switch to GOOGLE. Maybe they have someone around there who is at least minimally competent to solve technical problems.
13 votesHi Yahoo users,
I am not able to replicate this issue, please post here and tell us a few things so that we can re-create the problem here and fix it:
1) What exact problem you are having (example: Unable to show comments section? keep seeing spinning wheel in comment section? )
2) Which browser and browser version you are using (example: Firefox 14.0.1)
3) Which Operating Systems you are using?
Thanks for your help.

The Yahoo poll question that appears on the Yahoo home page needs to include a NONE OF THE ABOVE choice for each and every polling question.
Please consider adding a NONE OF THE ABOVE choice for each and every polling question. I find that many of the polling questions are irrelevant for more mature Yahoo followers... and there are a lot of us "more mature" Yahoo followers. I feel that our voice is NOT being heard because you exclude us from the polling questions by simply not giving us a choice. Not every Yahoo follower is under age 40.

It has been such a enjoyable week watching GMA without Josh!!! You can replace him with any of the guest hosts and the viewers will be happier.

Yahoo! News Search page 2 and beyond haven't showed up for 6 months, using any browser
The Yahoo! News site stopped working for me 6 months ago. I use it to search for news on a very specific topic, using a complex query. Since even that cannot be optimized, I have to go through 10-20 pages of 100-stories each to find the 10-20 that are really relevant to me. I can no longer do that. Google dumbed-down Google News over a year ago and it's now completely useless for anything but the most basic searches. Bing started-out as a dumbed-down search. Now Yahoo News works, but only for the first 100 stories. It seems ironic that…

I just had to say that I had to change channels when you announced this morning that Sam Champion was on his honeymoon. It's time to go.
I had to change channels this morning when you announced that Sam Champion was on his honeymoon. That is so sickening to me. I will change back to The Today show...leaving it years ago for Good Morning America..time to switch back

Ads should not have volume setting default 100%
As I was listening with headphones, that was incredibly painful. What was worse, was that even though I turned the volume down, a minute or two later another ad came on, and again, 100% volume. Here's the site: http://news.yahoo.com/video/abc

Can't see the replies that have been posted - click on replies and it closes them. Why?
On the comments pages it will say something like "4 replies" when I click on that instead of opening the replies, it won't even show how many there are, only the box for me to post a reply.
What I don't understand is why there are CONSTANT problems with yahoo comment boards. Do you have a trouble shooting team?4 votesHi Yahoo! News reader,

A new Yahoo News design that is more social network compatible....
I noticed that Yahoo News is working to improve it's news page, well Yahoo you almost have it the correct way, but this is where my suggestions come in, you just need to make some slight changes to your new design, then it will look ok. First decrease the size of your Yahoo News header to match FB's header, change the tone of blue header to match FB, Keep the old Yahoo search tool, I think we all think that looks fine, maybe just resize it, next combine all the links into a few buttons rather than stringing them all…

Script not responding, on every Yahoo page except home page
I use Mac OS 10.5.8 with Camino browser, Chrome browser and Safari browser---get the same script error every time, with every article. Solution so far is to read the front page and nothing else. There's a better solution.

Please include a small map of where your news stories are taking place.
I often have to leave your site to google a map to see where stories are happening. A clickable link button would also work.

compatibility
Yahoo News IE9 Compatability View issues with topic tabs (Yahoo! News, ABC News, Assocciated Press and Reuter, Education, Mid East etc) Unable to click on the topic tabs on the different pages (News, US, World, etc). Drop downs work but topic tabs do not.
I have switched back and forth between compatability view with and without refreshing the page. They used to work a month ago, now they seldom work.
