• Yahoo! Search uses Google Gears for local storage?

    Update, August 9th 2009: It’s used only on Google Chrome, and it’s used by the Search Pad for improving the user experience by speeding up responsiveness. I’ve recently written a new post on the subject.

    I’ve just used Yahoo! Search in Google Chrome. I got a typical Gears popup asking me if I want to let the web site use Gears. I still have no idea why Yahoo! suddenly likes using a Google product; neither Google Search nor Yahoo! Search are helpful for several keywords.

    Yahoo!’s Search blog doesn’t mention it either.
    Any info, anyone?
