Today Yahoo debuted the beta version of their newest instant messenger, version 5.6. Yahoo's newest version includes all types of bells and whistles, including new avatars and a stealth mode to hide you from certain users.
While the cosmetic additions to Yahoo Messenger make it more user friendly, the biggest inclusion to search engine users is the addition of a search box at the bottom of the utility. This gives users the ability to search Yahoo's engine without using a browser.
With more and more search engines moving towards non-browser searches, Yahoo becomes the first to include a search box on an instant messenger. Can AOL, Google, et al be far behind?
