Yahoo! Mail Superior to Gmail ?

ynotme writes "In his column, Walt Mossberg of the Wall Street Journal writes that the new Yahoo! Mail beta provides a superior webmail experience to Gmail. Some quotes: 'The new Yahoo Mail is far superior to Gmail. Yahoo more closely matches the desktop experience most serious email users have come to expect ... Gmail has none of these new, fluid, desktop-like features ... Google's engineers have decreed that familiar email practices are no longer useful, and have substituted approaches they prefer, arrogantly denying users any choice.'"

    I have seen the new yahoo beta webmail and used it occassionally just for testing. I much prefer the gmail look and feel. Yahoo looks too much like outlook for my tastes and reminds me of work. Gmail looks better and is easier to use in my opinion.
