Yahoo Launching SearchPad Today

Jul 7, 2009 - 8:30 am 1 by

Yahoo is reportedly releasing SearchPad today. We covered the preview of this earlier, where webmasters called it a big scraper tool - what search engine isn't. ;-)

What is it?

Search Pad is a note taking application built into Yahoo! Search that automatically assists you in saving websites you visit and taking notes as you search. Search Pad helps you collect, edit, organize, save, print, and email your notes for immediate or future use.

Search Pad is helpful in completing tasks and making decisions that require collecting information over multiple search sessions such as making a large purchase, planning a vacation or gathering information on a health issue.

You can learn all about it and see additional screen shots at http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/search/searchpad/.

Yahoo Search Pad

This can be a very useful tool for searchers, so I am looking forward to trying it out once and never using it again.
