Yahoo launches 'suggest search' feature

If you’re familiar with Amazon’s Search Suggestions feature, you know it’s a valuable tool for authors and publishers who want to add a bit more human intelligence to the retailer’s search results.

Now Yahoo is upgrading its search technology from a different direction. Its new suggest search feature prompts you with suggested search queries as you type. It’s supposed to limit the number of words you need to type into a query, and it can present similar queries to shorten your searching time and find what you’re looking for quicker.

It’s interesting that this tool seems to be more helpful with certain kinds of queries, and the results are usually much different than Google’s search suggest feature.
