 Yahoo ! Go Yahoo Go! is the first application optimized for the "small screen" of a mobile phone that truly makes it easy and fun to access the Internet. Everything about the Yahoo! Go interface is designed to be both visually stunning and give you what you want with the fewest clicks possible. At its core is the carousel, used to navigate intuitively among the various Yahoo! Go widgets: your own personal channels for email, local info & maps, news, sports, finance, entertainment, weather, Flickr photos and search. Simply use the carousel to scroll over to the widget you want. Since Yahoo! Go uses advanced caching and background loading technology, your widget content is automatically and continuously "pushed" to your phone, so it's always right there when you want it. You don't need to endure lengthy downloads or navigate loads of links to get to what you want.
Your world, now on your phone
Yahoo! Go truly brings the Internet to you.
Unlike prior applications that attempt to force-feed a PC experience to
your phone, Yahoo! Go has taken the Internet services you love and
optimized them for the mobile experience.
So wherever you go, the information you rely on goes along,
too. You can check the weather, keep tabs on your teams, examine your
stocks, and keep up with your favorite news sources, blogs and more
from all across the Web. You can access all kinds of local news or get
maps and directions to wherever you need to go.
Yahoo! Go knows what you like. The settings and content you selected
in your Yahoo! account on your PC will automatically apply to your
mobile experience—and vice-versa. If you’ve told Yahoo! which stocks to
track, teams to follow, locations to remember, and that sort of thing,
your phone will know all about it. All your personal info, including
your contacts and email, remain in sync with your Yahoo! Web account.*
So even if you lose your phone, you won’t lose your data.
*Two-way synchronization of contacts between phone and Web not available on all phones and carriers.
Open to the entire Internet
Yahoo! Go is all about you:
your unique tastes, needs and interests. That’s why it lets you
customize your experience with content from anywhere on the Web. Prefer
to get your news from The New York Times? Simply add its headlines to your News widget.
Yahoo! Go also makes it easy to get to other websites. Simply type
in the name of a website you want to visit (like eBay), and oneSearch
returns the link to the website. Click the link and you’re there.
Mobile search redefined

Finally, mobile search that really works! Introducing Yahoo!
oneSearch, an amazingly better search experience that redefines search
for the phone. It’s designed to give you instant answers—exactly what
you need when you’re on the go. Yahoo! oneSearch understands the type
of search you’re doing and optimizes the results accordingly—so you get
the answers you need instantly with just one click, right there on the
page. oneSearch includes more actual content in your initial results
than any other search—all grouped by subject matter and relevance, so
there’s no sea of links to wade through like with a PC search. It’s
easy to read, scroll through, or drill down further if you want more
details.
Moreover, oneSearch improves results based on both where you
are in the application and where you are in the real world. For
instance, launching a search for “eagles” in Sports will return results
for the professional football team first. Similarly, searching for a
movie will yield showtimes in your area.
Even using oneSearch is a snap. There’s no need to navigate to a
search box or even specify a category. Just start typing anywhere in
Yahoo! Go. oneSearch even remembers your previous searches to speed
things up.
