5 anni di Yahoo! Search

Sono passati 5 anni dalla nascita di Yahoo! Search e li festeggiano con un post sul blog.

Lo riporto perchè c'è la lista delle cose fatte e di quelle da fare nel prossimo futuro:

In the last five years, we?ve reached some important milestones:
? Opened our search infrastructure and index to outside developers with BOSS.
? Opened our search results page to outside innovation with SearchMonkey.
? Launched Search Assist, still the most sophisticated query assistance technology on the Web.
? Launched a suite of mobile search products including Yahoo! oneSearchTM.
? Acquired, grew, and improved Delicious, a top social bookmarking tool.
? Launched Site Explorer to help site owners to manage their presence on Yahoo! Search.
? Protected users from potential viruses, spyware, and spam with SearchScan.
? Integrated musicand video players directly on the search results page.
And while it?s fun to look back, we?re continuing to innovate for the future by:
? Continuing to open our search results page and infrastructure to improve Yahoo! Search and encourage innovation in the industry.
? Focusing on detecting and responding better to query intent.
? Breaking the ten-blue-links paradigm by developing a richer, more adaptive search results page.
