Yahoo Search

Navigate the Yahoo! Network

SUMMARY: Quickly jump around the various websites that compose the Yahoo! Network.


 

The Yahoo! network of websites, just like AOL's online service, can be navigated via keywords you can enter in through Yahoo! Search. Just enter a keyword followed by an exclamation point in the search box and Yahoo! will take you to the appropriate network site.

For example:

jobs!

Result: Yahoo! HotJobs at http://www.hotjobs.com/

movies!

Result: http://movies.yahoo.com

sports!

Result: http://sports.yahoo.com/

For a list of keywords, visit http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/ysearch/tips/tips-06.html. Note that not all of these may be correct. For example, both "job" and "jobs" are listed as keywords, but only "jobs!" took me to Yahoo! HotJobs (as of 12-29-2005).
