1. The Forecast is Beautiful - Introducing The Yahoo! Weather App for iPhone, iPod and iPod Touch.
Checking the weather is part of our daily routine, but who says it has to be routine? For most of us, getting the weather is a moment of anticipation, it’s the memory of a great place we’ve traveled to, or it’s even a topic of conversation with a total stranger. Weather is so much more than a forecast of reading numbers and charts.
Glad to share the Yahoo! Weather App for iPhone, iPod and iPod Touch - a window into the places everyone cares about. Yahoo! has brought together beautiful images from their Flickr community to show all users current local conditions, with all the details one want to know about the forecast. Instead of reading the weather, users can SEE the weather.
Inside users’ find stunning snapshots of weather around the world. With a tilt of the phone, one can get lost scrolling through photos reflecting the current weather in places that matter to you. We like to think of it as flipping through a stack of postcards from your travels. It’s easy to get the details. Tap the temperature for a quick view of the forecast or scroll down for precipitation, wind and pressure, a radar map, and more.
Yahoo!’s goal is to have amazing photos for every weather condition that cover the globe -- morning, afternoon, and night -- across every city in the world, and they want help of all users. Whether one is simply a daydreamer or an avid photographer, submit photos of its favorite places to Yahoo!’s Flickr Group and the same image can be seen by tens of millions in Yahoo! Weather for iPhone. For more details, please go to flickr.com/projectweather
Yahoo! Weather for iPhone, iPod, and iPod Touch is launching internationally in 30 languages, available for free on the App Store.
The new app combines Flickr photos from the http://www.flickr.com/groups/projectweather/pool/ with accurate and detailed weather information from around the world. Rain in Tokyo? Snow in Paris? Users will not only get the facts, but also see what it looks like. For a fullscreen view of the image, simply tilt your phone. To see the photo on Flickr, tap on the photographer’s name that’s displayed with each photo.
2. Unbox Mail with Yahoo! Mail For Tablets
With amazing displays, vibrant colors and lifelike images, tablets have changed the way we experience books, photos, movies and more. Yet email, something we do every day, has remained pretty much the same. Yahoo! has been boxed in.
Today, Yahoo! is excited to introduce the Yahoo! Mail Apps for iPad and Android tablets - a full-screen experience that gets rid of the noise. There are no folders, no buttons, no tabs - just users and their mail - and one can easily flip through it like a magazine. Yahoo! has designed Yahoo! Mail to take full advantage of the tablet making reading for its users email faster, easier and just a little bit more fun.
Yahoo! is also helping its users clean up their inbox, so they can get to the email that matters most. With the new Tablet Mail, users can quickly select their messages, automatically group by sender, and with a swipe - delete, star, or move them all.
Yahoo! figured their users probably didn’t need those expired coupons anyway.
Yahoo! is excited to build products for its users that make their lives just a bit more exceptional every day.
As Yahoo! set out to develop these apps, they wanted to take full advantage of the unique aspects of tablet devices, like the beautiful screens and intuitive gestures, while also making it easier and more fun for users to read and manage their email. Below are the tips for using a couple of Yahoo!s favorite new features.
Enjoy a lean-back, magazine-style experience while reading the email.
Tap the full-screen button in the lower left corner of your message to expand it across the entire screen. If one want to reply, delete, file or star a message simply tap anywhere on the screen and Yahoo! Mail’s familiar icons will appear.
To move to the next message on the iPad, simply swipe, as if one is turning the page in a magazine.
To flip through messages even faster, simply tap on the side of the screen to rapidly scan through one’s inbox.
Focus on the messages one care about most with a new feature that lets one easily sort by sender in Yahoo! Mail’s split-screen view.
Select a message in its inbox on the left side of the screen by checking the box that appears with the email. Users will then see that sender’s name appear on the right side of its screen.
Swipe on the sender’s name and users will see Yahoo! Mail’s familiar icons appear to delete, file, star or mark as unread or spam.
Users also see a plus sign that will indicate how many more messages one has from that sender. If the users select that, it will pull all the messages from that sender and then you can star, delete or file them all at once. Just think – all users can easily take control of their inbox with just a few taps.
Yahoo! hopes that these new features make email on users tablet easy and enjoyable. Let me know if you require further information from my end. I shall be glad to share it with you. Request you to kindly consider publishing this new and topical announcement from Yahoo! in your esteem publication.
