Yahoo and Google sign new search deal

A few days ago, Yahoo and Google signed a new deal valid until the end of 2018, by which Google "will provide web search results, search ads and image search services" for Yahoo user queries.

While the deal is not exclusive - Yahoo will still be able to work with Microsoft's Bing - it is possibly facilitated by the fact that current CEO Marissa Mayer used to work for Google.

This could help Yahoo make some more out of its search engine, by using Google's technology as a prop.
