A bit of topic is my post icurite. Yahoo at the moment at least when I search,the result pages are all with an error on the page which makes me not use it as often as I wish.Any thoughts on the problem. Confused

It is great that Yahoo! Search tries to offer a broad service, but it just a bit too much to take it: it can get quite confusing to use.

I personally haven't found any technical errors, although the errors and mismatches in the directory, including categories for places that don't exist, do kind of undermine it.

icurite,

I enjoy Yahoo and I have an account with them. I like setting up RSS feeds so I can watch other people's blogs.

But I think even Yahoo agrees with you about the "overwhelm" thing. If you've been watching they've been releasing SDK's to let other developers build apps with their core services. Kind of like saying "hey, helps us make a better interface for our users". Cool

RSS is good and i use it with my yahoo account also,its so easy.If only a similar system was in place without the need for a reader,it would make sharing internet content so much easier.

Just today I read an articol about Yahoo! claimint to have more indexed pages than G. ,maybe even twice as many but the conclusion of the tests conducted was Google returns somewhere about 166.9% more results than Yahoo! ...I do not understand what they'd make such a claim if not beeing able to prove it- that's fishy ,isn't it ?
