Yahoo! Search is very useful as a broad search engine

by three_ster three_ster is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Online Stores & Services, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Jun 01 '05
Yahoo! Search is located at http://search.yahoo.com , and it is one of those search engines that has slowly been improving its prowess over the years. Once, mostly dominated by self-promotion, it has evolved into a better engine, that also allows a ...

Yahoo's Search Engine Undergoes A Positive Transformation

by kristinafh Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Apr 19 '03
A long time ago, in a far away land, the only search engine that I ever used was Yahoo's. It was fairly straight forward and the results that were returned were applicable to what I was looking for.

Then, around the year 2000,...

No more "Yahoo's" for Yahoo!

by bops_mom Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Aug 05 '00
Pros: it is a search engine
Cons: broken links, not many sites for what you're looking for, impossible to submit your own site to
My husband is the computer and internet guy in our home. While I feel that in the internet world I have caught up to him (and I feel he'd agree with me), I'm still completely out of it where computers are concerned. :o)

So, anyway, it was...

How far can you throw a snowball?

by ltrain Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Aug 15 '00
Pros: Always online and working. Good email.
Cons: Slow, inaccurate, and hard to get listed on.
Yahoo is one of the most popular search engines on the web today. My wife has her email on the site, along with her auctions and uses it for all her searching needs. She spends hour upon hour searching and not finding in large part due to this...

Yahoo is way behind!

by phungus Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Aug 02 '00
Pros: Indexed! Woo hoo!
Cons: Way behind...
Yahoo is, I believe, the #1 site on the web, meaning that more people view it daily than any other site. It is first and foremost known as a search engine, but they also offer other features such as games, email, auctions, and much more. Yahoo also...

Yahoo! Search

by kiko_cat , Jun 08 '02
I will start this review by saying that I do usually prefer Google or AllTheWeb to Yahoo! Search but they have been good to me as well so I will be giving them a pretty good review. Yahoo! Search does have some good features that Google and AllTheWeb do...

Yahoo is the best search engine out there!

by GasJocket214 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 01 '01
Pros: Easy to use, and you can find almost anything.
Cons: It is a rarity, but sometimes you won't find what you are looking for.
Over the past few years I have been to, and used, many different search engines. If you can think up one I have probably used it. One day I found one called Yahoo. I thought that the name for this website was crazy. How would a site called “Yahoo” ever...

If It Ain't Broke...

by shan60 , Aug 04 '00
Pros: Extensive Search
Cons: May find more current info with other engines
I have to start this review with the disclaimer that I'm no computer genius. In fact, in some ways I'm still an internet infant learning more every day. I can click my way to just about anything I want/need, but most everything I've learned about the...

Searching made simple

by beavis612 , Aug 09 '00
Pros: Lots of extras on the web site
Cons: none so far
Searching for something specific on the web used to be hard.Trying to find something on George Washington on another search engine you'd find tons of blind links and stuff you weren't looking for.

Yet with Yahoo! Search I found it to be much...

Yahoo! Search ... the Internet at its lowest level of usage

by missyatwsu , Sep 06 '02
My friend has Yahoo! set up as the automatic search engine on his computer. So, of course when I am trying to search for something it will pop up. Now in the past I have used various search engines varrying from Excite, to google, to Lycos. Yet, I have...

GETTING LOST WITH YAHOO MAPS

by lonelyladyk Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Aug 18 '00
Pros: most directions were correct
Cons: got lost due to one wrong direction
I recently had to take a trip to Harrisburg for a meeting, but did not know how to get there. A chat friend of mine recommended using Yahoo maps, to get directions.

When I went into maps to search, it wouldn't give me a map for the exact...

Yahoo! You don't have to search for more.

by hhire , Aug 04 '00
Pros: Saves time
Cons: none
This review is directed more toward Yahoo as a whole than at Yahoo as a search engine. If all you use Yahoo for is searching, then you are really missing out on the many benefits of this awesome website. When you use Yahoo not only can you search for...

Find what you are looking for.

by gjacks Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Aug 01 '00
Pros: Advanced search
Cons: general search if looking for specific topic
I have been using Yahoo Search since I have been using the Internet, which is around 6 - 8 years. It's the first one I used and I fell in love with it after using it for a few months.

Maybe it's because it's the first one I used, but I am...

More than just a search engine

by HawgWyld Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Aug 02 '00
Pros: Search results organized in a logical way; quick servers
Cons: Some sites are absent because Yahoo! is highly selective on what sites get included
Yahoo! was, when it first came out, one of the greatest things to happen to the Internet in the history of that medium. Back in the "old days" of DOS-based browsers, finding what you were looking for on the Internet could be a bit difficult. Of...
