Default what do you like abt yahoo

Hi folks

I understand that Google is the most popular search engine in the world but there are people who uses Yahoo as well. Just wondering what are the reasons of using Yahoo! What are the features that you like most in Yahoo?
For me, the link command of yahoo is more accurate than Google. Google's link command is broken and never gives you the accurate picture.

What's your reasons for using Yahoo

If you take a look Yahoo is above Google in Alexa.

I don't think that Alexa ranking has any values as it can be manipulated very easily and if product can be compromized so easily than it cannot be trusted.

IT is only ranked better in Alexa, not for its search facilities.. but instead for its, Yahoo Games, Mail, Auctions, And other user friendly services that Google at the moment does not provide, weather, movies... etc...

Google believe it or not is still number 1 for search. Standing at a good 40%+....

But not long from now, if google does not improve its search facilities, Yahoo will be the most user friendly SE and the percentage will shift again.. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

Talking

Yes, griffith is right

Google SERPs are now not accurate as they used to be so they must work hard to improve their search engine credibility or else they will start loosing the faith.

Default like B2B searchs

Hi

I find Yahoo delivers better B2B results than Google. Google's inbuilt preference for .org, .ac and .edu sites mitigates against many commercial websites in the B2B arena. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

I use Y! Finance every day; it's Y!'s flagship service, IMO.

Overall, i think Yahoo is better than Google in every aspect, Google is going down and Yahoo is coming up.

Default Google is not going down.

It will never.
There are a few facilities that are better in yahoo like mail, images and groups. Yahoo groups are more active than google groups.

In the near future, you will be amazed at google's diversification. Wait for its own payment processor. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

Google SERPS do a fine job for me and i use it for that. But truly due to the many services offered by yahoo it is visited more and is growing up. Unless google starts concentrating on new services. I am sure soon yahoo will take over.

P.S. I am a google fan :P -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --
