Yahoo Integrates Product Search into New Search Tab
Perform a search on Yahoo now, and you'll see a new "Products" tab, which compares product prices if your search relates to something that can be bought or sold (you can tell it's new, because there's a tag hanging off the tab that says "new!", see?)
For example, search on "dvd" and you'll see normal search results; but, clicking on the Products tab will bring back shopping-related results, and allow you to customize your price comparison criteria. Nicely done, Yahoo!
I don't know how often I'll use this feature, but it's smart to make these kinds of "searchable" activities accessible from the main search page, a tactic that Google pioneered and needs to continue to develop or it could find itself eclipsed by Yahoo.
