The "one search box" option of yahoo was certainly a problem for the Chinese search engine. The Chinese feel that the option suits only the western users. The search engine was not able to work in harmony with the features of the web 2.0 era.

The Chinese also feel that the Chinese search engines should be exclusively tailor made for the natives. And that is why yahoo china has come up with an indigenous search engine which would cater the needs of Chinese people and would also work well with the web 2.0.

A simple home page was launched by yahoo china last year, but now after various featured augmentations the page is brimming with new contents. "Recommended music", "recommended headlines", "recommended pictures" are some of the latest additions.

Yahoo china is now a full fledged search engine with even more better features, planning to add more in the near future. The yahoo china introduces every feature keeping in mind the user's demands.
