This new Yahoo! Search on much better than previous.
Hey Christina,
During the hackday India, we have built something like oneSearch widget for blogs and websites. The search widget of Yahoo still shows only textual links.
You can check the details on my blog

Doesn’t work on Opera. :(
Try it on FireFox, It works fine in FF.
It works perfectly fine on Opera 9 – that’s what I am using now. And the videos, yes, they are top quality work (as usual!). Great job!
I love the new search – better results and and a nice feel to it. Keep up the good work
I’m amazed at how fast the new search is.. well done. Well done
This is really fast and awesome . hoping Yahoo will Frquently launch these types of advance search updates.
When I go to the main Yahoo page, I am told that I need to upgrade to a “newer” browser. I’m running OmniWeb, which is using the newest rendering engine from Safari. Does Yahoo intend to screen out all WebKit-based browsers other than Safari?
Then, when I tried to submit a comment to this blog via OmniWeb, after filling out my name, email address, and correctly typing in the anti-spam word, I received the following error:
“Comment Submission Error
Your comment submission failed for the following reasons:
Name and email address are required.
You also might not have completed the anti-spam questions correctly.”
That’s really strange. And yes, I re-typed the anti-spam word after previewing my post.
Ah ha! It’s my fault (sort of)! At some point in the past, I had to make OmniWeb lie to Yahoo so things would work properly by saying that it was Safari 1.x. So, Yahoo reasonably thought that I was running an old version of Safari. Now that I’ve changed OmniWeb back to identifying itself as OmniWeb, everything appears to work.
Thank you, Yahoo! My apologies.
The new IE 7 sometimes cannot handle the wording in other languages….and showing weird characters….
It works great with FF 2.0.8 but not IE7.
Anyway I prefer FireFox always.
I love the new search – better results and and a nice feel to it. Keep up the good work

With so much that Yahoo has to offer, I think Yahoo should have a ‘beginners’ guide type instruction website with easy to follow, step-by-step guidelines explaining all of the Yahoo services.
The seo expert and the blogger because the support and need each other.
