Search engine news, on Web searching and search engine optimization: " Yahoo! has now pulled the plug on the the AltaVista search engine. The AltaVista search site is from now on powered by Yahoo's new search technology. This follows a similar move regarding the AlltheWeb search engine and site (see below).
Yahoo! has apparently decided to keep the AltaVista and AlltheWeb brands for the time being, using them to explore alternative interfaces and ways of presenting search results.
AltaVista was once a pioneer in the development of advanced search engine technology, and was one of the dominating search sites before the rise of Google.
The AltaVista site continues to support advanced Boolean searching."
