Yahoo's Facebook Module Needs Work Computers

Yahoo announced a new Facebook module for users.  I tried it and it's not quite for prime time.

Facebook module

I see two problems.

  1. Fixed-width - C'mon guys.  Did you only test with one word updates?  That's a lot of wasted screen space.
  2. Double "is" - Facebook users hated the is so much that Facebook caved and made it optional.  Now Yahoo adds an extra one?  Way to go, Skippy!

I'm sure these will may get fixed, but someone skimped on the QA.

Update: It's a little better now, but not much.  Plus, why do I need to know what I am doing?

Slightly better Yahoo Facebook.
