On Thursday 25 September Yahoo will reveal its new homepage design – the last redesign was 2 years ago. Initial tasters of the new design will be conducted in the UK, France, India and the United States. Here’s a glimpse:

The new design aims to allow a more personalised www experience with features that include:

1. A tab on the left hand column of the page with links to the user’s 10 or 20 favourite sites.
2. Allows users who have signed into their Yahoo account to see when new information arrives not just on Yahoo sites, like email or news, but off-Yahoo on sites such as eBay auctions or Gmail.
3. Users can see a preview of the information while staying on their Yahoo homepage.
