Searching out the video buzz on Hollywood�s biggest night

Here at Yahoo!, we work on bringing you lots of ways to tap the web for whatever interests you � movies, music, games, etc � both on Yahoo and from across the web.

This weekend, we�re featuring news, images, video and other related Oscar goodness for the 78th Annual Academy Awards, with a special Oscar site and videos you can find from across the web using Yahoo! Video Search. You can search for trailers for Brokeback Mountain, Munich, and Walk the Line as well as tons of other content, like movie trailer mashups.

And if you miss it, we�ll also feature highlights from the evening the day after. It's another way to take in Hollywood however, and whenever, you want � the best and worst dresses, weepy acceptance speeches, lifetime achievement awards, you name it.

Have a great weekend!

Well,first goodos for covering OSCAR to greater extent.

Then coming to the video search what novelty yahoo offers? google too has the video search and they are indexing even the TV shows also.im not a google fan or msn or yahoo fan rather whats new yahoo offers when it comes to video search.

Google has splitted the video into several categories in the home page of video section so that user can easily search.whereas in Yahoo Video search,if and only if the user goes to advanced video search page they can search indepth.

Academy Awards show ratings, perhaps as good an indicator of the appeal of each year's crop of movies as Box Office, will likely dip rather dramatically as movies released over the past year have been largely out of touch with the interests and values of movie goers.

I suggest you to name your search url as WWW.Yahoos.com. Then only you will be able to beat Google, or I shd say win the industry.
No offences. Just a suggestion from my analysis and experience. Try it.
