To Yahoo ... What have you done to Yahoo answers? In any given category the newest answers are 20 hours old. Thought it was being improved.?

You need to go to the YA Team blog and read about the difference between the "Discover" tab and the "Answer" tab.

Discover - Network and Popular questions

Answer - New questions

So click on the Answer tab and you have the new questions. That YA Team blog has other entries on the new format.
