CONTACTS: You broke it, now fix it.
Yahoo's thoughtless designers lost business addresses and almost all details for all contacts.
Your designer are naive and confused: E-mail contacts don't have to include someone's name--things like the HVAC company, the bank, the car dealership, the dentist's office...the list goes on.
What Yahoo's designers did is lost lots of contacts I use. Like the dentist, the bank, the HVAC company...
Worse,when I click CONTACTS there are phone numbers...in the NAME field? Really?
Is there nobody at Yahoo who is overseeing this so-called upgrade? The loss in functionality and usefulness is apalling

CRUD. Create, Read, Update, Delete. These are the 4 basic functions of data storage. This is a reminder for Yahoo's programmers/designers who've forgotten/never learned them.
Here's my report card, for New Yahoo's CONTACTS team:
CREATE: Grade = D. Reason: Slashed functionality.
I can no longer create new contacts from e-mail, I have to key them manually.
Yahoo still adds junk addresses (e,g, those harvested from 'bulk' e-mails) to my “TO:” dropdown, and won't let me delete them.READ: Grade = F. Reason: Amputated functionality
I can't find contacts because Yahoo has taken upon itself to
edit or invert contact first/last names or
reset secondary addresses as primary or
sort names by the adolescent preference of first name, not the adult standard of last name or
lose/misfile contacts because they're businesses, with no first or last name or
replace a name with a phone number...and lose the original name
suppress contact details, like phone numbers, mailing & street addresses, birthdays etc.UPDATE: Grade = F. Reason: Evanescent functionality.
Yahoo won't let me edit contact details—basics like a new addresses or phone numbers or jobs. Edit is almost consistently grayed-out.DELETE: Grade = F
Yahoo won't let me delete useless addresses –those that yahoo added to my contacts as a result of someone's ill addressed 'bulk' e-mail.
Yahoo won't let me delete obsolete addressYahoo contacts fails on 3 of 4 data storage functions. We know it wasn't tested, but why was it ever released?
Shame on Yahoo

Black text on midnight blue background? powder blue on gray? These are unreadable except perhaps to high school sophomores. Bring back themes or (better) customization that lets your users make comfortable (or uncomfortable) displays according to our needs. I'm truly weary of being victimized by designers who slavishly chase after every self congratulatory trend. Form should follow function. That means make it usable first and foremost
