Yahoo Launches New Search - Not Google or Inktomi

Well it is official Yahoo dumps Google search technology. But its not pure Inktomi results as we were expecting. It seems to be more of a mix of a bunch of results including some of the Yahoo directory. But I am not 100% sure yet.

Does this make the Yahoo! Directory submission fee more attractive to its customer? Duh!

"Yahoo replaced Google's results with its own Yahoo Search Technology, which combines an array of recently acquired search technologies, such as Inktomi and commercial search provider Overture Services."

Make sure to keep an eye out for Yahoo Slurp, the new Yahoo Spider.
