Unofficial Yahoo Weblog gets in on new Yahoo Mail beta

Brad Hill over at our sister blog, The Unofficial Yahoo Weblog, is one of the few, the proud, and the geeky to get to play with a beta upgrade of Yahoo Mail.

After acquiring Oddpost, who had an impressive webmail interface that predated Gmail by a couple years, Yahoo's been talking about a significant upgrade for a while now, and it looks like they aim to deliver. Features like drag-and-drop messages and a desktop-like interface, along with quotes from Brad like "Gmail is suddenly looking a little clunky" are making me think twice about leaving my Yahoo account banished to the spam-collection end of my tool belt. Go check out Brad's review, and if it whets your appetite enough, sign yourself up for their beta test to (eventually) get in on the fun.
