What Yahoo Mail does to the In-Reply-To header appears to be random. Whatever it is, it?ɬ¢?¢‚Äö¬¨?¢‚Äû¬¢s random and broken. Yahoo has been screwing around with a new home page. They used to have the news and important stuff on the right where the eye naturally goes, and the crap and ads on the left. Now they reversed everything. The important stuff is on the left.

Oh and that Eduardo guy commented on my blog entry too. :-) I remember thinking exactly the same thing when I blogged about this: “If only Google had have bought Flickr!”

In Panoramio you can locate your photos via drag and drop interface using Google Maps. You also can watch the photos in Google Earth through <a href="http://www.panoramio.com/panoramio.kml">KML feed</a>.

I really like the system and how it's implemented, but Yahoo! Maps doesn't have a thing on Google. They're so so far apart quality wise. Hopefully this introduction to Flickr will increase demand for better maps big time and Yahoo! will get their thinking caps on and work hard on it. Although saying that, if they wanted to make an impact, a good idea would've been to update thier maps for this Flickr upgrade... Well we can only hope I guess!

The maps aren't even up-to-date (I think they're about 20 years old) and there's lots of inaccuracies. Same problem in the UK – while Google and MS Windows Live have good offerings, Yahoo Maps sucks.
