Yahoo's Y!Q Contextual Search Beta

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the punctuation-equals-edgy-we-swear dept.

skeptic1 writes "Just days after Microsoft unvieled its new MSN search, Yahoo released a new search tool called Y!Q that allows users to search within the context of the web pages they are currently viewing. It's not the typical textbox input search, and you don't even have to leave the current page you're on to use it. The current release is only the beta version."

    No wonder they lost the search engine wars. They check into odd things like thus, but even now their search results still do not have caching. That's the one thing that keeps me going back to Google again and again. Wish they would fix the deficiencies first.
