on Aug 21st, 2008More modifications to More Y!
If you haven’t seen More Y! , then its high time you do. Its a simple search plugin built on top of BOSS platform that optimizes the search experience for widescreen displays. Whats even more cool is the adoption rate. My statistics tell me that there have been a lot of people who use this service and nothing satisfies a technologist more than to see his technology being adopted.
After a fight with my significant other who is trying really hard to improve relevance on Yahoo search results, I realized that I wasn’t doing justice to search results by ordering top results in top down fashion. I have changed the code to now show results in left-right fashion. Now the most popular results will be available on top of the screen and you don’t have to strain those precious eyeballs of yours to look all the way down to see the results. A simple change but for a goo cause.
When I get the time, I shall also incorporate search suggestions on your toolbar, but till then make do with this.
