The Year In Search - About Web Search August 2005

By , About.com Guide

About Web Search in August 2005 was all about finding people with Zabasearch, free movie downloads, and the August Scavenger Hunt - as well as a great time at the Search Engine Strategies conference.

Read my recap of the first session of Search Engine Strategies, personalized search and search history, and consumer-generated content.

View the Search Engine Strategies and Yahoo Campus photo gallery, Yahoo gets into the music business, and somebody loves Google just a bit too much.

IT Conversations was my useful site of the day, Gmail was made open to the public, turn any RSS feed into a podcast with Audiolicious, and AOL was fined for retentive customer care.

Yahoo got a new bulk submit option, read my interview with Steven Marder of Eurekster, remember Hurricane Katrina, and find out what search engine spiders are good for.
