Google + Yahoo ! Have You Seen This?

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, maybe someone already posted this but I searched all the topics and didn't find anything related so here it is:

Did google and yahoo made a combination that resulted in a new site called GAHOOYOOGLE.COM? I think that some genius computer hacker guy made this site to make it easy to people to search. My friend told me about this site and I was asking myself:''When did that happened?!'' Idon't think that this is too dificult to make but is it legal. Google and Yahoo do know this because it is listed in their sites.

Umm...I knew about this site since September 2005.It was featured in the NetNow section of "The Magazine".Anyways, it doesn't take a genius to make that site. It is just 3 frames: top banner, google search and Yahoo! search. I personally use the Yahoo! side more often.There are other similar sites that have been taken down.I did a page on Gahoo!Yoogle on my website. GO check it out.

I doubt that these two rival search engines would just team up and make their own page, and if they really did there would be a lot more advertising for it. I had never heard of this until you brought it up. There are already a lot of combined search engines such as http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ where you can search many engines at once, and I think that's all GAHOOYOOGLE is. Just someone who wanted to search a couple engines at once. Plus, I dont see any google or Yahoo copyrights, and they would put them if they were in on it.

There are a lot of websites on the internet available which do these kind of things, it's very easy to create a website like that I reckon. I stick to the original Google :rolleyes:

Would you mind telling me where to go? And can you tell me how to do it? I mean put combined search engines in my site?
Also does anyone know search.com I think it is the best combination of search engines like google, msn, askjeeves, and lots of other major search engines.

Sure...the page might be down because of improper FTP uploading, but it case you want to know, it is NOT a search engine. It is just information about Gahoo!Yoogle.

{{http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/}} click on Search Engines and then About Gahoo!Yoogle. The actual link is http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/.

Go check it out, even the screenshots. Just don't refresh too much to waste my bandwidth. :rolleyes:

Ha, that's pretty cool. Took someone long enough to try that out. Just google "Cheese" or something simple, and you can see how different the results are. A little difficult to view, but we can all get around that.

Merged with previous posting about this service.

 

Shibo,

 

Take the time to Search the Forum before adding new Topics, please. It makes the Forum cleaner. There is no advantage to cluttering the place with duplicate topics.

 

This is your second one today. Any more and a Warning will be issued.

 

Thanks for your co-operation.

Thats pretty cool. I doubt I would use it as the results are harder to read and to be honest, I am happy with just Google. It isn't helped by the fact that I have a small screen.

Well there are many such types like dogpile.com and others.
Even i made one but it just gives you an option to search through your favourite search engine. Here try it out:
http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

I was to add all these but didnt get the time.
But i will do that one day. Its not that tough and just a play of Javascript and frames.

Nice idea, but I would never use it. If you could somehow combine the results into one frame ie:

Google Result 1Yahoo Result 1Google Result 2Yahoo Result 2Google Result 3...

That would be useful. It's awkward having to look at two frames and once and unnecessary too; one search engine is good enough.
