Wouldn’t it be nice if you can do almost anything on your email? Like updating your Facebook status! But how will you be able to do that? Well that’s not a problem anymore for Yahoo! Mail users because Yahoo! has integrated with Facebook so you can easily update your FB status straight from your email!

How to turn on this feature:

1. Link your Yahoo! and Facebook accounts by clicking on the “Add to Facebook” link in the status section on the What’s New tab in Yahoo! Mail.

2. A new window will open. Log in to your Facebook account and click Connect.

3. Once you’ve successfully linked your account to Facebook, click Continue.

After linking to your Facebook account, here’s what you’ll be able to do right from Yahoo! Mail:

1. Update your Facebook status – simply start typing what’s on your mind in the status box, and then choose where you want to share it – Yahoo!, Facebook or both. Click Post.

2.  See Facebook profile photos when people email you – with this feature, you will see people’s Facebook profile photos – if available – anytime someone emails you.  In addition, by clicking on the profile image, you will go right to that person’s Facebook page.

Yahoo said that:
