    i've got observed that too. i don't comprehend if yahoo is intentionally offering any recommendations, besides the shown fact that it would not inevitably elect this to happen. Any programmer might desire to write an application to 'scrape' web pages, extracting recommendations. The cleverer this equipment, the greater precise the scrape. hence a internet site approximately widgets might desire to apply considered one of those software to scrape different widget websites, extracting the recommendations in a usable style and reformatting it for his or her very own internet site. It is clever that Y!A may well be a aim for this; it incredibly is a huge internet site with a excessive content point, all interior an identical format. meaning the scraper has to handle basically this one format, and might definitely hire key-word searches. collectively as this may well be far from legal, it is likewise complicated to stop. it would mean leaping on each internet site that does this. it is only like unsolicited mail - it would in all probability take some excessive-profile prosecutions and gigantic effects to discourage human beings from doing it. Even then they're going to in all probability only use servers in 'dodgy' worldwide places to get around that. i think of it is something we will only might desire to get used to. We should not be putting any mushy recommendations on Y!A besides, and make helpful your demonstrate screen call would not discover the actual you.

    It's just a glitch. It happened to me three times today. Don't you think 'man' the bot caused that problem??

    They are having a flukey "glitch" today about limits due to a software update. Click Refresh or BACK and retry it and it will work. It will clear up completely soon.
