Yahoo Adds Tool to Social Search

From Yahoo’s Search Blog:

Save to My Web is a simple, sociable button you can add to any and every page of your blog or website. Users click to save your content and add it directly to their stored pages on My Web 2.0. From there, the page is easy to retrieve, and easy to share with others. …

For bloggers and publishers, it’s a great way to distribute content to a larger community of connected users and make your pages instantly searchable on Yahoo! Just copy and paste this code into your blog templates anywhere and everywhere you want the button to appear on your pages.


Note this: “it’s a great way to… make your pages instantly searchable on Yahoo!” I think this is a neat tool, but I don’t plan to put it on my site. Why? Well, it’s too…focused on one place. I dunno, but I want something else. Something non-denominational. Clearly Yahoo is a major player, and that alone creates weather but….it feels like playing favorites. I guess that’s just me. What do you all think?
