Yahoo! Quest is a new way of browsing Q&As in an intuitive manner: it augments search results with a summary of the most important terms, and lets you zoom in and out of them.
Read more about Yahoo! Quest in the blog post.
Quest was created by the Search & Web Mining group.
What's brilliant about this? Just searching yahoo answers? I'm really interested to know. do tell me.

Comment by Alyona Medelyan (November 17, 2009, 1:03 am)Very nice! Why not doing the same thing for queries?

Comment by Kesavan Muthuvel (December 18, 2009, 7:04 am)I think what you are trying to achieve is some sort of an alternative to Google Squared. I find the Quest interface very clumsy. The Noun/Verb interface is very difficult to use. A better idea would have been to have a sub-topic based interface. The Q&A part is great. But I have to make a real effort to reach that unless I know exactly what I am searching for, which then defeats the very purpose of this project,
