Yahoo! Expanding Your Web Searches to Include Deep Web Subscription Content

Yahoo! Search blog: "We set out to address this problem by partnering with several popular deep Web content providers (Consumer Reports, Forrester Research, FT.com, the IEEE, the New England Journal of Medicine, TheStreet.com, the Wall Street Journal Online, the ACM, Factiva, LexisNexis, and Thomson Gale) to build Yahoo! Search Subscriptions. Now it’s easy to include results from a number of popular subscription sites in your everyday Web search experience. You still need a subscription to the sites if you want to access their content, and since all Yahoo! users aren’t subscribed to the same sites, you can select the sources you want to search by setting your personal search subscriptions preferences.

What we’re releasing today in the U.S. and the UK is only the beginning of larger efforts to help you find more of the information that’s useful to you. Just like everything else we do, Yahoo! Search Subscriptions will continue to improve. We will expand the list of content sources globally.."
