US based firm yahoo although tries its base in India (as it is the mightiest in software field), while yahoo tries its first search engine in India in Yahoo India site but as named as Yahoo Glue, Although it works for certain categories of searches (sports, travel, entertainment, health, stocks, and tech), but it does produce a more satisfying experience than the traditional list of blue links. But in addition to that it has properties like images, videos, Wikipedia entries, HowStuffWorks entries, sports stats, and news, and results from other sources.
Its great for any user who searches for any thing and gets more then he need like bio, pics, YouTube videos, news, and results from Yahoo Answers, which is not possible to get in Google so far.
This project won't get just limited only to India but also to the US as it will be launched there in this summer. It will also allow developers to change the way search results are displayed, and Yahoo Glue starts to get interesting. Yahoo doesn't have to create the templates for every single search category. Developers can do that and, in the process, make Yahoo Glue a truly sticky app.
