http://search.yahoo.com/ They had that as there frount page.... I think it's the best bit about Y! What about you? It's so slow the main site..
Y! is the most popular Internet destination because it's a portal. Adopting that austere look would just be copying G, and that wouldn't do them any good. As always, IMO. AmCy
guys, Google has no properties other than search engine. This is how they make money. They have best search engine. By comparison, Yahoo has lots of properties, most of you don't even know all the them - flickr, alibaba, mybloglog, etc etc. They never wanted to be just a search company, but Google did
That may have been true in the past but google is expanding outside the realm of a pure search engine company and they are able to do this without losing their search market share.
I agree with Amy. Yahoo is the most popular site on internet because it is a portal with lot of things. If they want to compete with google as a search engine, yahoo need to improve their search results. I wonder why Yahoo didn't start an all new search engine which is not a portal.
Yahoo was never meant to be just a search engine... Thats what the Google boys realized and made Google JUST a search engine. They knew they couldnt compete with Yahoo at the time, and still cant for certain products such as email, but concentrating on mainly search technology, whereas Yahoo had to display news and world issues and tons of other great resources. All Google did was create and concentrate all their budget on the search algorithm, which ended up taking off huge! But Yahoo, is not to blame, as Yahoo was never meant for just searching the internet.
yahoo is trying to improve its feature for general user, I think it should go ahead. Doing a same work like another one, it does not mean to copying to some one. If we look at it as different manner then its is technique to improve self features. http://search.yahoo.com I like its home page.
Hey, Yahoo's homepage isn't bad. It might have a lot of things but it just shows how much they have for a range of different people.
hopefully yahoo can do better with its search engine. if they can get to 25 % share then it would be great. like 45% google, 25% yahoo, 15% MSN and 15% the rest.
