Yahoo! Search blog has finally announced one of the coolest and easiest to use applications available, Yahoo! Search Builder.

In a nutshell, Yahoo! Search Builder allows one to own and build a niche targeted search engine.

With Yahoo! Search Builder you can create a custom Web search engine by selecting a set of trusted sites to search across or you can tune the search algorithm to the topic of your choice. Beyond Web search, Search Builder includes Site search and News search.



Then generate the code you’ll need to add your search engine to your site. You also have control over the look and feel of the search box and search results page. Voila! Instant search engine!

This can be a very useful experiment especially to those companies looking to add something cool to catch the geeky wavelength of an audience.
