It works like this: When you do a search on
Yahoo!, you'll automatically be given suggestions based on what you have typed - as you're typing. So, not only does this limit the number of words you need to type into a query, it may also present similar queries to shorten your searching time and get to what you're looking for quicker. Search Suggest isn't new, just new to Yahoo.com.Google is using it for a long time. They launched this feature in the
Yahoo! Toolbar in Firefox a
while back and you can get it directly from the Firefox 2 search box when you select Yahoo! as your search engine.
