Yahoo pushes scout with new homepage button and product recommendations

Yahoo is pushing Yahoo Scout more aggressively now. Yahoo has added a button for Scout directly on its homepage, similar to what Google has done with its own homepage buttons.

I spotted this yesterday, and it appears this may be visible to everyone.

Here is a screenshot of the new Yahoo homepage button for Yahoo Scout.

Here is a screenshot of the similar approach Google is taking on its own homepage.

Additionally, when searching for an ecommerce-related query within Yahoo Scout, it now shows product recommendations. Previously, Yahoo Scout only displayed text-based answers with standard blue hyperlinks.

Here is a screenshot of this.

Based on these changes, it looks like Yahoo is continuing to push Yahoo Scout more prominently across its platform.
