April Fool's!!!

And silly Rorke....Yahoo doesn't run on valves....(tubes for us American's)...

My understanding is they're shutting down access to older versions of YM, and August 31st is now the date for any and all active versions to be shut off
from connectivity.

And the new stand alone desktop version to replace the standard YM is still planned for some point in the future.
