What is the difference between wiki and Yahoo?

Hi!

As far as questions go, both sites have the same concept, that is you can ask and answer questions. The main difference between these two sites is that Yahoo! is a much larger network which also provides services such as email, music and online shopping. WikiAnswers however is similar to answerbag.com, in respect that it only deals with questions and questions only. Another difference in the sites is that to use Yahoo! Answers one must sign in, however the WikiAnswers website allows anyone to post and answer questions anonymously.

When I answer a question on Yahoo Answers why do my answers have an edit and delete next to them and the others do not?

You may want to ask this on Yahoo Answers (or better yet stay here and ask and answer questions on WikiAnswers instead of Yahoo Answers :-)

What is the expansion for Yahoo?

Yahoo is the name of one of the most popular web portals; it was started originally in January 1994 by Jerry Yang and David Filo, two Stanford graduates and current Yahoo chiefs. Yahoo was incorporated in March 1995 and since then has grown exponentially; today it is regarded by many as the website with the maximum number of visitors on the Internet.

According to many people the full form of Yahoo is considered to be Yet Another Hierarchically Officious Oracle which implied the number of website directories similar to Yahoo. However according to the founders Yang and Filo the name was taken from Jonathan Swift's satirical work Gulliver's Travels in which Yahoos are rough and unsophisticated beings that somewhat resemble humans.

Yahoo is also an exclamation used to indicate jubilance and to show joy. Some of the other expansions of Yahoo are You Are Hooked Over and Over, You Always Have Other Options and Yet Another Hierarchically Organized Oracle. source :http://www.blurtit.com/q706005.html Azhar (md)

Is yahoo a meta search engine?

Hi

I should say no. yahoo.com is not a Meta search engine.

A meta search engine is a search engine without the web crawler and indexer part. the web crawler is the part which search the internet and goes to every page by using the links in pre pages. crawlers use random o none random seed pages to find their links to other pages and tries to look uo to every page that it has cached before in order to keep its information updated.

and the indexer is the part which derives the information which it wants out of the pages to use them in finding results.

Meta search engine does not have these two parts.

A good way to find out if a search engine is a meta or not is to see if it uses other.

some meta search engines are:

Web crawler
