The New Yahoo! Buzz

If things look a little different at Yahoo! Buzz, they're supposed to. We've redesigned the site with a slew of enhancements we think you'll enjoy. Here's a quick run-down on what's different...

1. Design Makeover (duh) -- We didn't try to reinvent the Buzz, but we did smooth out the edges, push the good stuff up, and give you easier access to some of our most popular features.
2. More features -- We're putting a new emphasis on the social aspects of Yahoo! Buzz. Specifically, that means the new and improved "Buzz Updates" module in the upper right-hand corner. There you'll be able to see what stories your friends are buzzing. It's a great way to keep track of what your buddies are into.
3. Easier to submit stories -- Yes, we admit it. In the past, submitting stories to Yahoo! Buzz could be a bit of a pain. No more! We've made the process faster and easier, and we predict you'll be buzzing even more in the coming months.
4. We've gone international -- India now has its very own Buzz. We've launched a region-specific version complete with a variety of unique publishers and features. Stay tuned for even more international launches.

Please take a moment and let us know what you think of the new Buzz. Leave a comment below. Believe it or not, we read every one of 'em. Thanks for reading, and keep on buzzing!
