YAHOO AUSTRALIA has released its first stand-alone search project through which users can perform Flickr, Wikipedia, YouTube and Yahoo search queries simultaneously.

Alpha is similar to Google's Co-op and makes it possible to search all of your favourite search engines from a single page.

The site uses Yahoo's regular web search function, but, in addition to this, can display results from Wikipedia, Yahoo7 Answers, Flickr and YouTube.

The entire beta has been developed by Yahoo's Australian engineering department. It has not yet been decided when or if Alpha will ever see the light of day as a project.

You can play with it here. It didn't tell us anything we didn't already know though.

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
