Yahoo! will begin a limited test of Google's AdSense for Search service, which will deliver relevant Google ads alongside Yahoo!'s own search results. The test will apply only to traffic from yahoo.com in the US and will not include Yahoo!'s extended network of affiliate or premium publisher partners. The test is expected to last up to two weeks and will be limited to no more than 3 percent of Yahoo! search queries. The company noted that the testing does not necessarily mean that Yahoo! will join the AdSense for Search program or that any further commercial relationship with Google will result. The company further stated that it would not comment on the nature or timing of any potential relationship. Microsoft issued a statement in response to the news, saying a tie-up between Yahoo! and Google would consolidate over 90 percent of the se

Joe Mullin writes "We've discussed Troll Tracker here before — the anonymous blogger who was outed last month as Rick Frenkel, a Cisco lawyer. Since then, two lawyers from the notoriously patent-friendly Eastern District of Texas have filed defamation suits against Frenkel and Cisco, and Frenkel's blog has been shuttered. One of the plaintiffs, a renowned patent judge's son, may have been hunting the anonymous blogger for months. This week Cisco announced new blogging guidelines in response to the Troll Tracker fiasco. The company acknowledged that 'a few Cisco employees used poor judgment' during secret-blog-time, but they're largely standing by their man. Cisco's new rules will prohibit only anonymous blogging by employees about issues for which 'they have responsibilities at Cisco.

Thomas Hawk writes "Once again a Yahoo! user has found themselves on the short end of the DMCA stick. Video blogger Loren Feldman recently found that his video mocking (read parody) the Village People and blogger Shel Israel was removed from the Yahoo! service after Scorpio Music served Yahoo! with a DMCA takedown notice. The video in question contained a very brief fair use parody snippet of the Village People song YMCA as performed by a puppet. What's more, Yahoo! threatened Feldman with the termination of all of his Yahoo! services including the revocation of his Yahoo ID."

Yahoo and Google are launching a small experiment in which ads selected and delivered by Google would appear on Yahoo searches. That would probably give Yahoo more cash, because Google generates more revenue per search query than Yahoo. The development is widely seen as an effort by Yahoo to avoid the buyout advances of Microsoft.

Yahoo HotJobs introduces ranked searches: A dismal economy inevitably tends to lead to more job seekers, so perhaps Yahoo (NSDQ: YHOO) has timed the launch of HotJobs’ new search ranking system just right. Dubbed “R.E.A.L. (for “Relevance, Engagement, Availability and Location") the system is meant to give recruiters greater insights into job seekers’ behavior. The system uses Yahoo’s behavioral targeting and search optimization tools to rank job listings based on user engagement, as opposed to what Yahoo calls “traditional category-based, date-sorted experience.” So far, Yahoo claims that since the beta launch earlier this year, “applies” per job listing have increased by 25 percent.

With Microsoft's previously given deadline of 26th April drawing nearer, Yahoo has made some plans with Google with the two-week test in which Yahoo placed relevant ads from Google on its search results. Talks of antitrust issues are floating in the air if the two major search engines are looking at possible merge in lieu of Microsoft's undervalued offer as claimed by Yahoo, but the final straw hasn't been drawn till next week where we'll see if Yahoo accepts the Microsoft deal, or forces the Redmond company to act on its ultimatum and initiate a proxy fight for Yahoo's shares.

mikkl666 writes "Even just since this morning, there's much to report in the ongoing fight between Microsoft and Yahoo!. After Yahoo! announced yesterday that they are testing Google AdSense, Microsoft reacted with a comment pointing out that 'any definitive agreement between Yahoo! and Google would consolidate over 90% of the search advertising market in Google's hands.' Ironically, they complain that 'this would make the market far less competitive.' Both companies try to team up with strong partners, as well. Yahoo! and AOL are now closing in on a deal to combine their Internet operations. And of course, this morning's news was that Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. is apparently in talks for a joint bid for Yahoo!"
