Yahoo! oneSearch for Mobile Phones

Yahoo! launched Yahoo! oneSearch, an entirely new search service designed to give consumers exactly what they want on their mobile device -- instant answers. oneSearch leverages Yahoo!'s deep experience, investment and expertise in search on the desktop as well as relationships with leading content providers to deliver an unmatched mobile search experience for consumers. With this launch Yahoo! expands its mobile Internet leadership.

Yahoo! oneSearch is available to consumers through the Yahoo! Go for Mobile 2.0 beta. By the end of January 2007, Yahoo! plans to make oneSearch available across the company's Mobile Web and SMS services. Yahoo! oneSearch will roll out in additional country and language versions in the coming months.

If a consumer wants to see the results of a specific sporting event he just needs to type the name of the team into the search box. The search results would first list the final score of the most recent game and information on the next scheduled game, then additional content including, a team profile and roster, official Web site, sports photos, related news articles, web images, local results and more. To dig more deeply into the results, a consumer would simply need to click on any item or category. For example, to get the box score of the most recent game he can just click on the final score.

Yahoo! oneSearch also includes features designed to make searching as easy as possible for consumers, including emembering previous queries and auto-fill to speed up the entry of common terms. In addition, the service allows for easy navigation to other websites. Consumers can simply enter the name of any company and the link to its site will appear at the top of the search results.

You can download the Yahoo! Go 2.0 beta (http://go.yahoo.com) beginning today on more than 70 mobile devices from major manufacturers worldwide and use it on their wireless network. Yahoo! Go 2.0 is an innovative new application that redefines the mobile Internet experience for consumers through a unique product design, ability to personalize with content from the entire Internet and a reinvention of mobile search.
