Yahoo, in a bid to enhance the 's overall search experience, will now be showing assembled search results instead of giving several links, especially when a in on the move and is searching for a specific location. The search results would show the images, videos, news and other additional content related to the search, on top.

"We know when you're on the go, you're often searching for a specific piece of information. So rather than delivering endless links for you to sift through on a small screen, we beautifully assemble the most relevant information in a way that allows you to take action right away," said Andrew Poon, Vice President, Product Management at Yahoo, in a company blog post.

To test the new Yahoo Search, s would have to go navigate to search.yahoo.com from their mobile devices.

The company CEO, Marissa Meyer in a shareholders meet earlier this week, also announced Yahoo's tie-up with Oracle. As a part of the collaboration, Oracle will begin rolling out Java updates with a pre-ticked installation box that will install Yahoo Search as the default search engine in the 's default browser. The firm said that "we have definitely made sure that our onboarding process is one that is highly transparent and gives s choice," as per Wall Street Journal report. s who don't want to install the Yahoo search in the first place, can uncheck the box while updating the Java application. While the move will certainly help Yahoo get its search engine onto more browsers, we are not too sure it will sit well in s who are already wary of such bundled offers.
