New Features in Yahoo Search
 Another sign that the search engine wars are heating up, Yahoo announced a new search feature that will enable you to save your favorite search results on a custom web page with comments, and even share your search results with a friend via email.
How is this useful? For example, someone just asked me abut a new DVD/TiVo recorder. I did a few searches, but it would have been great to just send the results page to her with the sites I thought the most valuable to her questions and not the hundreds of junk sites that also work their way in. Very nice. Expect Google to get in gear soon, but hats off to Yahoo for taking the lead in some search innovations.
