You also get the 'read full article' button if you click on a news story on yahoos main page. (make your users do extra work <check for web 2.0) Next, because they went with a font that is 6 points too large, it strains your eyes to even read it. (Use large font to look like you add content for web 2.0<check) The double space between the article is so pointless, that you have to scroll more to read. (add space between links to show you have more content <check for web 2.0) They added images for the sake of adding images. they do nothing to the content. (add things that have nothing to do with anything to look like you have more content <check for web 2.0) Light color font on a white screen <check for web 2.0 Lets simply leave yahoo news for an easier to read news site. Well heres the issues with yahoos new news site.
