TurboScout.com Makes Web Searching 20 Times Faster
TurboScout.com Makes Web Searching 20 Times Faster
A 21 year-old undergraduate from Singapore launched TurboScout.com, a new search tool that helps Internet users to access and compare original results from over 90 search engines across 7 categories on a single web page, removing the hassle of retyping keywords into different search engines.
Comparing results from different search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN Search, and Ask Jeeves is a common practice for many users. This is because different engines use different ranking methods and thus no single engine can give users exactly what they’re looking for.
“That’s where TurboScout.com comes in handy.” Says William Chee, founder of TurboScout.com. “Grown out of the frustration of typing and retyping keywords into different search engines, I decided to create an online search tool to get rid of these hassles and make such searching 20 times faster.”
“Users who visit http://www.turboscout.com only need to enter keywords once, and getting original results from different search engines is as simple as clicking the engine’s name. No more retyping keywords into different search engines.”
Search engine marketing firms also find TurboScout.com an invaluable tool for search engine optimization and finding out the rankings of their clients’ web sites in different engines.
Users who set their browser home page to their favorite site can even customize TurboScout.com to load together with their favorite web site. This way, users can have all the benefits of TurboScout.com and access to their favorite site at the same time.
In addition to web page search, TurboScout.com also helps users to find images, search encyclopedias, check out latest news, look for interesting blogs, find songs and videos, and even compare prices from major online retailers and auction sites.
With a growing number of users who search online, TurboScout.com is slated to become the preferred time-saving search tool for many across the globe.

New Service to Provide Developers with Comprehensive Web Service APIs For Yahoo! Search and Overture Services
Yahoo! Inc. a leading global Internet company, today announced the launch of the Yahoo! Search Developer Network (http://developer.yahoo.com) a new, one-stop resource that provides developers with access to Web service application programming interfaces (APIs) to Yahoo! Search products and Overture's (which will be re-branded Yahoo! Search Marketing Solutions) long standing API programs. Additionally, the Yahoo! Search Developer Network provides application developers with sample code and tools to share ideas and expertise, as well as the ability to showcase applications written and distributed by developers.
"We have worked closely with the development community to create a new program designed to stimulate open discussion, experimentation and development of new search applications," said Dr. David Ku, director of engineering, Yahoo! Search. "We believe that it is critical to provide the development community with both the search APIs and interactive resources to help foster the discovery of innovative applications leveraging Yahoo! Search Technology."
The Yahoo Search Developer Network features Yahoo! Search APIs which span Web search verticals, search engine marketing and direct advertising products including:
Web search - leveraging Yahoo! Search Technology
Image search - the largest image search index on the Web with more than 1.5 billion images
Video search - providing users with one-click access to any video
News search - with more than 7,000 news sources
Local search - the most popular destination online for local information
Spelling correction - advanced search query spelling correction technology
Related searches - advanced search query recommendation technology
Overture - access to its search engine marketing API program
In addition to providing the APIs, the Yahoo! Search Developer Network also enables developers to share knowledge through an interactive online community that features: mailing lists and discussion groups dedicated to each API, an application showcase, a weblog, and a "wiki" that provides developers with the ability to ask questions, share ideas and provide feedback on how best to utilize the APIs.
"Yahoo! has a rich legacy in creating consumer applications and we are excited that they are opening up their search platform, to allow the development community to innovate and build upon their technology," said Rael Dornfest, CTO, O'Reilly Media, Inc. "We look forward to seeing what independent developers will design for the next generation of consumer and business applications."
APIs enable developers and webmasters to easily create search-enabled applications that leverage Yahoo! Search Technology. To help developers get started quickly, the Yahoo Search Developer Network provides sample code for the most popular Web application development languages including Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python and PHP. Most APIs provide the developers with access to 5,000 queries per day per API, exceeding current competitive search API offerings.
In addition to providing web search services, the Yahoo Search Developer Network provides public access to the API that Overture has provided to its partners since 2001. The program allows search engine marketers, direct advertisers and other third party developers to build applications that interact directly with Overture's products and tools to manage and analyze search marketing campaigns.
