Sharing Content

Share content with your friends so they can add the same content to their My Yahoo!. You can share with any of your friends. Even if your friend isn’t a current Yahoo! user she’ll be able to view the content on a My Yahoo! page. If she likes what she sees, she can join the My Yahoo! community and save the content on her own personal page.

We don’t share any of your personalized content. For example, if you share Mail content, your friend will see his or her email and not yours. If you share Weather, your friend will need to specify a location because your location isn’t sent with the content.

You can share a tab of content or a single content item. This task shows you how to share a single content item.

 

Here’s How

  1. Click the Edit button (Edit button) in the content’s title area.

    Click the Edit button.

    The area below the title expands to show you several tabs, which vary depending on the content you’re editing.

  2. Click the Share tab.

  3. In the Share tab, type one or more email address in the To box (separating each with a comma), add an optional message in the text box, then click the Send button.

    Type an email address in the To box and an optional message in the text box, then click the Send button.

    A message tells you that the email was sent.

  4. Click the OK button to close the Share tab.

 

What’s Next

You can share an entire tab of content with a friend.
