Yahoo!'s new feature "My Yahoo!"

As you may or may not know Yahoo! is testing it's new service: "My Yahoo!". I've just discovered "My Yahoo!" a few days ago, when I was trying to add some feeds to my 360 blog.
What I was trying to do(and I'm still trying) on my 360 blog(and that is add the feeds for some of my favorite webpages), I've done it with "My Yahoo!" in a few seconds. This new service from Yahoo! seems to be very handy, you can hear about:
sports(by http://sports.yahoo.com),
weather(by http://weather.yahoo.com),
tv(by http://tv.yahoo.com),
stocks(by http://finance.yahoo.com),
shops(by http://shops.yahoo.com),
music(by http://music.yahoo.com),
local infomations(by http://local.yahoo.com),
your favorite comic(mine is Garfield) and you can also share that page with your friends.

Also you can add your feed and you can read you favorite articles from your page. But the thing I've liked the most was: "You can set and alert for each feed and you can receive it by mail, phone or as an alert on your Y! Messenger." So you will always know when something new is on. So practically you'll be the first to read the news.
Yahoo! is still testing this service, but I think they will have a lot of success with it. :)
Good job Yahoo! you've finally done something that will come in handy after Yahoo! Messenger(also accessible as an web application with Yahoo! Web Messenger , I think My Yahoo! will be the next outbreak.
