Nothing actually happened today so I lazily start up my yahoo messenger after i got home from a tiresome ride around the town to shop things that i need. As the yahoo messenger popped-up, It shows most of my friends are offline with a few labelled as “idle”…

After a short while, i got a “pow” sound from my shiny new Yahoo Messenger 7 Beta “You got 1 unread message”. “Who could be emailing me to my yahoo account? Another spam?”, I clicked on Yahoo Messenger’s cute email icon, and i’ve been ushered to Yahoo mail website…..

i have hard time to get my eyes up, suddenly i noticed this :

Yahoo Mail typo !!

Please concentrate your eyes in these lines, specificly for the first and third line.

? You are using 1% of your 1.0GB MB limit
? Go to Inbox or Check Other Mail
? Yahoo! Mail gives you 1.0GB MB for free!

Apparently somebody at yahoo.com forgot to clean up the MB (notice the “1.0GB MB limit” line )after yahoo have succesfully upgraded it’s account limit to 1GB. I hope that yahoo.com is going to fix this thing soon, because this cosmetic mistake is really noticable when you are using any type of browser that is “not fully supported by Yahoo” like Netscape 4.8.

Note : I really dont use Netscape 4.8, i accidently switched my Mozilla Firefox user-agent to Netscape 4.8, some coincidence huh?

p/s : i did not fake up the screenshot… :p

    Almost 2 years later, and when you log in with JavaScript turned off, I stil see the same thing:

    1.0GB MB for free
    Would you like to buy a 10MB, 25MB, 50MB or 100MB mailbox?
