Yahoo unveils real-time search service

    SAN FRANCISCO, March 23 (Xinhua) -- Yahoo Inc. on Wednesday introduced a new feature to its search engine, which the company said can deliver answers and direct access to websites before users complete their query¹ or hit the search button.
    The new feature, called Search Direct, predicts search results as fast as a person types and presents those results dynamically(动态的), Yahoo said.
    "With today's launch, direct answers -- not the search results page -- is the primary focus. We are redefining the search process and prominently displaying direct answers where search decisions are being made," Shashi Seth, Yahoo's senior vice² president of search and marketplaces, said in a statement.
    "Search Direct is evidence of Yahoo continuing to lead innovation in search, enabling people to take action faster, find what is most important, and sample what is possible with the next stage of search technology," he added.
    Yahoo announced that Search Direct is rolling out in a public test version to its users across the United States Wednesday, and will be available in other Yahoo products and markets later this year.(本文由在线英语听力室整理编辑)
