    On yahoo's homepage, you can see a flash banner advertising yahoo's search engine results.

    I screenshot-ed it and here's a rough draft on the banner (in case you can't see it)

    What do you guys think about the banner?

    No doubt, Yahoo! has improved their search engine very much. But still they need lots of hard work to beat Google.

    It all looks nice but Yahoo still faces an uphill climb against the big G.

    One of the advt. says...Santa lost while searching....

    Was it Jerry Yang himself posing as Santa who got lost while searching for a new job?;)

    Yahoo has miles to go...before it can even nudge Big G from its slot..:cool:
