Half a Word is Enough for Yandex
Internet, October 15, 2008. Yandex search now offers intelligent suggestions. These suggestions help users enter queries in the search box faster and define searches more precisely. Hyperlinked suggestions take users straight to the website they need.
A list of suggestions is displayed in a drop down menu when typing a query in the search box. This significantly speeds up online search. Instead of typing the whole word or phrase, the user only has to select the desired query from the list. For instance, it is enough to type “mic” to have “microsoft” suggested, or “lin” to see “lineage 2” at the top of suggestions list. The new search feature also has some extra capabilities like automatic Russian spelling corrector and keyboard layout detector. Thus, for the Cyrillic letter combination “дщму” the word “love” will be suggested.
Today, Yandex search offers suggestions to 10 million queries. About 10,000 suggestions are hyperlinked, so that users can click through straight to the website they need without clicking the “Search” button.
This search suggestion technology was implemented in Yandex.Bar in August 2007.
