Its certainly a good way of providing flexibility in providing the right type of view to the user – Semantic web allows relating and making inferences easier. How would it be like to combine the new yahoo framework to the underlying semantic web, which we assume is present ? The effectiveness of the new yahoo framework could increase, would nt it ?

It’s nice to know that I can create another home page, or perhaps a few new doorway pages for my site, even if they are small. Nice. Will Google’s troubles continue as a result?

Something doesn’t sit right for me, or perhaps I don’t fully understand.

“Third parties will have an incentive to get users to add their Yahoo search modification, which in turn can drive more traffic to their sites.”

What exactly is the incentive to develop these modifications if users are only going to be at your site once (to install the modification presumably)? After that, how are you to drive traffic? Are you allowed to put links to your site right in the SERPs?

I don’t get it.

So is Yahoo actually supporting the OpenSearch protocol with this? I don’t think that’s the case. If they were they would be talking about how 3rd parties could add completely new data sources and not just change the look & feel of their results…

I think the title “Yahoo Announces Open Search Platform” is a bit missleading if they’re not actually supporting OpenSearch. It’s like saying “Yahoo Announces a Really Simple Syndication Platform” but it’s not RSS based…
