Since I’ll be somewhat backed up with coding work the next few days, some reviews have been are piling up. The list of things I want to review over the coming days is growing and includes:

- Yahoo Mail - This new version is supposed to rock. I’ve read lots of good things about this one and want to compare it to Gmail, as others are doing.
- In depth reviews of two new games we bought including World of Warcraft MMORPG and Reel Deal Vegas Casino (single and online version). I’ve played the latter a little bit, but not the former yet. My Reel Deal Vegas name is “TD”
- Opera blog community - I started a free test/demo blog there last week and would like to share my experiences with readers. I’ve also been using the Opera browser almost every day for a week now and would like to chime in with more detailed thoughts of that experience.
- JotSpot Live hosted Wiki service - new third party hosted Wiki service that uses AJAX. Check out what Techcrunch has to say about JotSpot. Free for users for up to five wiki pages per month, but those pages contain ads.
- Yahoo Publishing Network (YPN) update - we’ve been testing YPN for almost a month now on a couple other sites and I’d like to update readers on how these tests are going.
- Yahoo “Livewords” function as part of their Yahoo Desktop Search - I took a look at their desktop search awhile back, I’d like to try it out again with this new function. Yahoo has been doing some really cool things in 2005 and I’m interested to see how this works. Albert Lee, Sr. Product Manager of Yahoo talked about this yesterday.

If any Hmm readers have tried/used any of these products/services and want to leave your opinion, possibly for inclusion in these upcoming Hmm review posts, please comment or trackback below. I wish I had more time today to try, use, experience and write all these reviews, but I must get back to the coding mines.

Taking my trusty bird though, just in case I run into any noxious gases.

• Yahoo Search API now available
• Should Google worry about Yahoo entering contextual search?
• Reel Deal High Roller and Mystic Forest
• Wikis more often than not suck
• Help fixing float right CSS problem in IE7 and Opera
• Yahoo! to enter desktop search space
