Yahoo! Search has announced Search Assist that gives consumers real-time query suggestions as well as related topics and concepts, apart from the basic search "suggestions". Also annouunced was the integration of audio, video and photos directly into the search results that allows consumers to get their answers - Web link, photo, video or music clip - without leaving the page. "The new Yahoo! Search is focused on getting consumers the most relevant information as well as providing the best user experience. We know that consumers want a complete answer, not a bunch of links, and the changes we've made are focused on getting people to the best answer - whether it be a Web link, photo, video or music clip - in one search," said Vish Makhijani, general manager and senior vice president of Yahoo! Search. As part of the new Yahoo! Search, consumers will also see new Yahoo! Search Shortcuts, with the information found on the Web and contributed by other online users. The new shortcuts were designed to help consumers save time when searching for popular categories such as events, music, movies, travel, sports, health, shopping, businesses and restaurants. The new Yahoo! Search features are available immediately at yahoo.com in the United States, and Yahoo! Search Assist will also be available in the near future in the United Kingdom. No news on when it'll be available to us here. |
