Last week I stumbled across a really interesting and easy-to-use personalized search plugin – Kikin.
Kikin, plugin you download for your browser, was launched in late 2009 and is still in beta form. When you search on Google, Bing or Yahoo – in addition to your regular search results, it will also aggregate relevant content from: [...]

Yahoo Real Estate, the nation’s #2 real estate search portal, launched a redesign today.
The site, which has adopted a much more muted color palette (lots of earth tones), offers up a new dynamic search results page and much larger photos in its listing pages (see Inman News story). It’s a decent catchup effort but still [...]

Microsoft launches a $44.6 Billion unsolicited bid to acquire Yahoo.
Let’s assume for a moment that the deal will stick (and it certainly sounds like it’s farther along than we think) – what does it mean for online real estate?
First and foremost, it likely means consolidation at the top of the real estate portals as the [...]

Just in case you hadn’t had enough already, Yahoo! News has re-purposed Redfin’s controversial 60 Minutes segment into a new microsite called Real Estate: Buying And Selling Online.
Unfortunately, the original Lesly Stahl segment has been split into several short clips, losing whatever coherence the original had and making it nearly unwatchable (this was presumably done [...]

Yahoo! Finance is the online Goliath in the financial news space. Netratings puts its December page views at over 600 million, more than twice its closest competitor, MSN Money. (Source: 24/7 Wall St.: Yahoo! Finance Beats The Competition)
Last week, they retooled the site and added a number of new content options. CNET reported that these [...]

Yahoo! Search Marketing rolled out its new advertising platform, dubbed Panama, today.
The biggest leap forward with Panama is that Yahoo has greatly simplified the process of signing up and purchasing CPC advertising on its properties. This is great news for all marketers.
Panama basically boils down the process to down to five simple steps, which means [...]

Ms. Dewey is a different kind of search engine. Makes Google and Yahoo! feel a little boring. Check it out and you’ll see why. I’m not sure how relevant its search results are – but then again, does it really matter?

A recent post on real estate 2.x stirs up the old question about Zillow’s business model once again. According to an anonymous commenter on that site (who lays out a lengthly calculation) “every man woman and child on earth must visit Zillow 2.0 times EACH per year” in order for Zillow to be profitable enough [...]

I’m becoming increasingly intrigued by the number of “local” web sites that are being launched or revamped at the moment. Backfence.com, which launched its newest California site this week, is just another in a long line of similar sites in the same space: Kudzu.com, Judy’s Book (read my take on them here) and Yelp.com, to [...]
