The big buzz last night was from Yahoo releasing the Yahoo Mail Beta globally. The new beta vastly improves speed, security, email search while offering a “more social email experience,” said Yahoo.

The Yahoo Search Blog briefly explained “you’ll find a faster email search using Yahoo’s wealth of search science and technology.” The new left-hand column has added navigation to sort and narrow your search results by sender, attachment file, date, or folder location.

Other improvements to Yahoo mail are underlying speed improvements, better spam prevention, sleeker mobile experience, and social, photo and video integration. For more information, see http://features.mail.yahoo.com/.
