A Reason to use Yahoo or a Reason to be on Facebook?…

Yahoo recently did something pretty cool. That might sound strange to say because for the most part you can poke Yahoo with a stick when you compare it to Google. But Google and Facebook don’t get a long for the most part so this makes sense. What…

Its brilliant. Its a defensive play and competitive partnership against Google. Only problem is this will likely cause more people to abandon Facebook. Look how crazy people went over the TOS.

Yahoo to offer FB $500M. Watch.

It’s just showing your public, searchable Facebook profile. If you don’t want to appear, switch it off in your Facebook privacy settings.

As the searcher, this allows you to spam top personalities.

As the spamee, I would hate it.

Search should be to learn more about a person, not to befriend them. Pls see http://twitter.tEarn.com or http://media.tEarn.com/ to learn more about key people.

One more step to becoming the “100% glass” citizen.

Does everybody really give a sh## about our constantly fading privacy?

I mean, can we actually be THAT stupid as a species?

these search monkey plugins on yahoo! search are not default. the last time i checked there were around 120 search monkey plugins. stumble upon, digg to name a few.
Users can select these plugins from preferences and can remove them anytime.
the one that i love is “IMDB Infobar”. it shows everything about an actor/movie on the search page itself.

“By all rights, Facebook should be the default people search, whether on Facebook or on search engines like Yahoo and Google.”

Are you serious? A search engine should find the most relevant result when doing a people search. Depending on the person you’re searching for, it may or may not come from Facebook.

This is in fact a step in the right direction, and Yahoo! is actually getting it right. The web is – every day – becoming more social in nature and that should and will include search. Heck, if someone is a member of Facebook, I can certainly search for them and do all of the above anyway. This saves users a couple clicks.

Now, can you “opt out” is the real question – some folks may wish, as you can with most services and apps – opt out of such an option.

How is that scary? How is that different from running a search for a friend on Facebook.com itself?
