Did Yahoo update recently?

I've seen different keyword search rankings.. Does anyone else see this? Looks like Yahoo has updated in some way? Just making sure....

Thanks

I don't see any difference in Yahoo, they still seem to be using googles search, except for the PPC

Yahoo! has not been using Google for many months now.

yahoo seem to have an interesting set up whereby there database is set over multiple servers.

Basically you get results from whatever servers are available.

evidence of this -

I have a network here, 4 computers linked up - i search yahoo with one computer - my site is top, straight away afterwards i search on another - nowhere to be seen. The results are so random.

The set of results i get on one of the computers is almost identical to googles results - i have posted about this previously somewhere

well if there not...Yahoo shows the same results as Google does..at least on my machine they do.

I take that back. It seems they use some of it along some other data base. I only look at the top 2 or 3 sites on the searches I do and they are the same as google's but the ones below that are different.
