...we’ve begun adding related search content below news stories – we call these modules “Infinite Browse”
[Clip]
...boxes appear below articles on Yahoo News [screen shots on blog post] to give you more information on the topic you’re reading about. With this feature, we’re leveraging our search technology to help people browse and explore things they’re interested in, such as images, videos, news articles, slideshows, and search suggestions – without having to go to a separate web page, type in a query and hit that “search” button.
These modules might look simple, but they harness an array of Yahoo! technologies and search sciences to complement the work of editors at Yahoo! News.
Yahoo's Trending Now Lists (Popular Searches on Yahoo Right Now)
It would be great if Yahoo would offer a page where all of their trending lists could be analyzed/compared & contrasted in a single location and perhaps also compared with what's trending on Twitter.
When you click on any of the terms on the Trending Now list, you will find the latest information about a hot topic and discover related content from Yahoo! Search.
