Changes Afoot at Yahoo & MSN: "Yahoo has begun crawling the web with a new indexing robot...The new robot is called Yahoo! Slurp...crawled pages may not show up in search results. Why? According to the Yahoo Search FAQ, "The documents will be indexed and included into the search database in the near future."

Yahoo is also now creating a cache of web pages similar to Google's.

What else is changing at Yahoo? The company won't comment yet.

Meanwhile, over at MSN, LookSmart listings have been dropped, and Inktomi results have been promoted. MSN has also rolled out a new search beta.
