Image Searching
This shouldn’t come as a surprise: using Yahoo! Image Search, photos from Flickr abound; using Google Image Search, not so much.
For example, a simple search for “Tilley hats” yields two Flickr photos on page 1 in Yahoo and more on every subsequent results page. Missing from the results (at least the first 5 pages) are any images from Picasa Web Albums.
The same search on Google doesn’t yeild a Flickr photo until page 3. The surprising thing is that the first Flickr photo is only two spots behind the first Picasa photo.
(Perhaps the most surprising result of all is the photo in the second row on the first page of Yahoo!s results.)
