Just a small change, but the button to log out of MobileMe now actually says "Log Out" instead of just having a symbol. This is a very positive change - someone like my mother who is not very computer literate, and only very occasionally needs the web interface, would have struggled with the old way.

There is also a "news" button next to it, so it looks like they are getting serious about the blog.

Can't agree here. I liked the pictogram better. I mean, you have it in your Macs when you want to turn it off. Even in every mobile, cars (newer ones), vacuum cleaner, etc.

Most of the Mail service have "Log out" buttons, so this one was very special. But now ... Well, otherwise it's good to see improvements. I had a chat with a tech supporter, concerning my 60 days extension. I like the bolg thing. They going to a good path.

Actually, while my mom is quite intelligent, being a very new Mac and Mobile Me user, she did panic when I hit that button. She thought I was turning the power off before I finished setting things up for her. :) It was cute, but quite frankly having the universal symbol for power used as a button to log out seems silly.

Annoyingly, Safari insists on loading the News link as a new window, even if I press CMD+Click.

I never liked the power button.

It didn't stand out enough on the toolbar - too easy to miss.
