    I was doing a search in Yahoo today, and it looks like the long awaited Yahoo/Bing search engines merging is here.... Is Yahoo using Bing search results?

    Try compare some keywords searching Yahoo and Bing at the same time, you will notice the same result. (I'm searching from the U.S, i don't know your location).

    Also sitelinks easily seen in Bing is also displayed at Yahoo search results for example:
    Top hosting companies like godaddy, verio, siteground etc. has sitelinks in place.
    Top Directories like Dmoz, Botw, Ezilon, Joeant has sitelinks in place

    Can someone check this 2 search engines Yahoo and Bing and see if i'm the only one seeing that from the United States?

    If Yahoo and Microsoft teamed up, what is the advantage or disadvange to search industry?

    The results for my keywords in Yahoo and Bing are different but Ive heard that they were trying to merge. Not sure if they merged already or if they are still in talks. I think if they merged they would be a much bigger force and would be able to compete with Google.

    Google is the best search engine and will remember the best search engine ever. Google has helped many friends of mine and clients achieve high visibility in their business. Google is always and will always be my favorite search engine.

    False alarm. I just checked some of my kws in Yahoo and Bing and Google. Google, Yahoo, and Bing were still significantly different. In fact a term I ranked 4 on Yahoo ranks 45 on Bing. This change isn't supposed to go live till October fyi.
