Ask3D

Ask.com has undergone drastic changes. This new re-launch name is Ask3D. According to Ask.com

3D stands for the three dimensions of searching – query expression, investigating results, and digging deeply into content. You used to have to visit three different pages or websites to see and search through each dimension. With Ask3D, you can now get everything you need on one page…in many cases above the fold.

New look of Ask.com is neat and clean with the pretty graphics, the ability to narrow searches.

Yahoo has come up with a web-based messenger. This should have been done long time back when Google started integrating Gtalk on the web in every means it would – Gtalk is integrated with Gmail, Google personalized home page as a gadget and finally you can add their gadget to any page that you might want.
