The new search results page SUCKS!!!!! The blue bar full of advertising and links is annoying and in the way. The fact that we can’t get rid of it is aggravating and it pisses me off everytime I see it. I’ve been using Google more and more since this was implemented and since I can’t find anyway to change the yahoo layout I’ve just added Google to my favorites and search from there. If you absolutely have to change layouts at least give your customers the ability to select which view they want. Buy the way, your description of the changes and increased functionality is such a load of crap it is funny. Nice spin. I’m off to Google.

the left side bar IS very distracting considering that’s where anyone looks first for results & then have to go right for every line. Along with the new look, even new results have taken over my rankings.. sob.. I miss Old Pretty Yahoo!!!!

Don’t like the searchpad so much. it looks distracting when it’s on the left side.
If you have to have the seachpad thing putting it on the right wouldn’t be so bad. I just don’t like having to look at it.

It is my opinion, probably way later than anyone elses’ … that the present “search” options and results are terribly corrupted by the changes that have occurred but go unnoticed because they are in the background. I used to be able to search using Yahoo’s search engine and expect to get results that were comprehensive and usable (at least for me) and now all I get is what some ad person might think I am looking for. I have difficulty getting the information I seek … a good example is trying to search about why my GMC odometer doesn’t work and my speedometer does? What I want to find out is “why” not pay some GM wannabe mechanic a fee to tell me something I don’t already know or to make a bit of chump change at my expense. It is getting to the point to where greed is going to completely ruin “search” it is the reason I will never Google, I won’t “Bing” and I will soon not Yahoo. GL to you … I hope somebody reads this who might be able to do something about it. But of course, I doubt that would happen … BTW why don’t you have a feedback loop on your website so I can be sure someone at Yahoo could hear about how upset we are?

I think that the search engine first and foremost task is to enhance the user experience…
