Yahoo Debuts Search APIs

Posted by CmdrTaco on Tuesday March 1, 2005 @02:20AM from the stepping-up-the-search-race dept.

Dotnaught writes "With its planned introduction on Tuesday of new search APIs and a developer network, Yahoo aims to tap the creativity of the open source community. As the current issue of Wired points out, "Yahoo makes more money and has more patents, services and users than Google." Will nurturing a developer community have any impact on Yahoo's competitive position against Google and Microsoft?"
