So with the BIG announcement yesterday of the deal between Yahoo and Microsoft (henceforth Microhoo), we’ve done a quick straw-poll at iCrossing HQ to find out what our team of experts would do if they were in charge of mashing both engines together:
- Improve SiteExplorer functionality with Bing data (helps get the SEO community onside), and certainly don’t get rid of it!
- Create an online OS to rival Google Chrome – quickly
- iframe Google SERP results and display Microhoo advertising
- Implement this ASAP (video search speech recognition)
- Integrate Flickr within Bing image search
- Integrate Yahoo answers into Microhoo results for queries structured as questions, maybe only where a best answer has been chosen or voted for in Yahoo Answers.
- Get a butler – everyone good search engine needs a butler
- Sell it and retire
- Somehow incorporate Yahoo Pipes within Microhoo SERPs
- Get a public spokesman for Bing, a la Matt Cutts
What would you do, or like to see?
