Yahoo Site Explorer gets new features

Google gets way too much attention on this blog...and on the web in general. How about a little Yahoo news?

Yahoo! is now redirecting all "site:domain.com" - type searches directly to site explorer. This is to highlight the new and improved features in the Site Explorer update.

Updates include:
* More information about sites you own, including:
o Last Crawled Date and Language for your Site URLs
o Subdomains of your site
* Feed submissions are much smoother. You can submit RSS, Atom and URL lists, and manage all of them from one place. For authenticated sites, you can also track when they were submitted and processed.
* UpdateNotification Web Service to notify us of feed or site updates, part of the suite of Site Explorer APIs you already know and love. Since these return the same data as the tool, we recommend using them for automated applications.

Try out Yahoo Site Explorer
