What I find even more interesting that these shutdowns is that an entry from the Yahoo corp blog has made it to the front page of Hacker News. This may be a sign that people are starting to find Yahoo related news interesting again.
Even the Yahoo Mail app (despite crashing a lot on my phone) is admittedly a lot better looking.
Like the sibling commenter here, I find that I almost exclusively check the weather on my phone, but I'll keep this at the back of my mind for more thought-out planning. :)
Edit: I will add, her position as CEO IS interesting, as are the changes that she is making.
