Yes,I do have a yahoo account but I hardly use it since I am more happy using my gmail account.I made an account in yahoo because most of my friends like to use yahoo messenger and so do I.Good day!

I have a Yahoo account I have used for quite some time now. I use it for Chat in Yahoo messenger, and for Yahoo groups where I talk about a lot of different things and share things in here as well. I personally do not like their Email system though, so I use my Account for other things mostly there as well.

My first email account was a Yahoo one,which I have 13 years later.I have 5 more also that I use for different subjects.My daughter has one also.I prefer the free email accounts.That way if you change or loose your server for some reason you still have your emails and the same address.I also have a hotmail one and a gmail one,but I think that the Yahoo ones are easier to use.

Yahoo is the first web based email that I signed up. And I still maintain my accounts till now. When I first sign up I only got 4 MB email space. But now Yahoo giving unlimited mail space. So you don't have about your inbox will full if you receive a lot of email and have to delete some of email in order to receive new email. Beside that I also have an email at yahoo japan. I signed up a year ago.

Yes I have a Yahoo account, several in fact. I barely ever use them for email however. A couple of them were set up mainly as repositories for signing up for stuff from a certain company that pays you to sign up for things. This account is now loaded with spam. The other reason that I don't use Yahoo accounts for email is that a lot of legitimate stuff gets stuck in their spam filters. Now I must say that Yahoo has a great search engine and also a great instant messenger that allows you to do voice. For these alone I would set up a Yahoo account. I also use Yahoo domain registration for a couple of my domain names. My favorite free email is gmail.com and also I use email from my domains.

My Yahoo account started somewhere around 1998 and I forgot the exact date when I first registered there. At that time I can't register with Gmail because it needs credit number for registration which I didn't have. So, I stay with one email, Yahoo! free registration. Till now my Yahoo! account still active. But now, I found so many FREE email service providers on internet. Some with pay option for upgrade and many versions of it. Little knowledge about Yahoo! stored in my computer; On 12 April 1996, Yahoo! had its initial public offering, raising $33.8 million dollars, by selling 2.6 million shares at $13 each.

Hi There! Yes, yahoo messenger is my first chat messenger when I first log on to the Internet… My first ever email was set up in yahoo mail account. Well, maybe you can set one so you can communicate with your family and friends who are far away from home if you needed to… On my end, I still use my Yahoo Messenger but with voice and video chat, I use Skype more often. Goodluck! Thanks for the discussion! Happy New Year and Happy HOlidays! Cheers!

I have two yahoo accounts and I've had one of those for several years now. Yahoo is my favorite email account as far as ease and features go.

To my thinking Yahoo "communication" is far too invasive. I don't want any Yahoo stuff on my computer. It is easy to get but very hard to get rid of.

I do have a yahoo account but these days I hardly ever check this account. Besides yahoo I also have a hotmail and gmail account for communication.

Yep, I do have a Yahoo account. Im not sure just when I created my first account but I think it was sometime in high school. Needed it for some schoolwork and stuff and I still use the original one I created. Ive created I think about 5 now, two of which expired so I had to make another one to replace the old ones. Now I only have 2 yahoo accounts. One is for personal and work and the other is for junk mail like newsletters and such.
