We just celebrated the New Year and suddenly it’s the middle of January.  Time certainly flies!  After a really long holiday and now that things are back to normal, whether in school or work, allow me to offer you some tips on how to make the most of 2009 at Yahoo!.  Check out the following really cool stuff you can find here:

• Profiles: Launched a little time ago in 2008… but big sensation for 2009! – have you got one already? Profiles is the place where you can tell more about yourself, upload your pic, share your interests and connect with friends!  You can start by adding me now (my Yahoo! ID is jonasdelosreyes).
• Flickr: If you are a camera fan (and that means to all Pinoys out there, hehehe), you probably have your Flickr account already… but let me share with you one of the coolest thing about Flickr: you can geo tag pics. That means you can specify the location in which the photo was taken and it will be added to that point on the map.  Then, you can search by geotagged photos!  With Flickr, there’s really no need to say, there are millions of photos and videos you can explore.  Even the magazines echo about the amount of pictures of Barack Obama!

• Yahoo! Philippines: Make this your starting point every time you go online.  The news and feature articles will certainly keep you updated and informed on what’s happening in and around the country, Search is just a click away (beside the logo) and the Personal Assistant area (upper right side) makes sure you get a glimpse on your Yahoo! Mail, who’s online in Messenger, and updates on your Qs and As in Answers.  Plus, the Inside Yahoo!, Pulse and Flickr modules will surprise you with different content to check out.
• Mail & Messenger:  There’s really no excuse anymore not to stay connected with family and friends, no matter where you are.  With Mail and Messenger you are just a few clicks away from anyone in the world, so make sure you drop them a line from time to time.  It will brighten their day for sure!

And of course, we don’t want to leave Answers out.  I hope you all will continue to contribute to making Answers a great place to share knowledge and connect with like people.  There’s a lot coming in 2009 so stay tuned!
