Yahoo have realised that Google and MSN are fast leaving them behind in respects of what search engines now offer.

The Search engine has redesigned its online maps to make it easier to get driving directions to multiple destinations and find local merchants -- the latest move in the company's duel with Internet powerhouse, Google Inc.

Yahoo is matching some of Google's features, such as the ability to scroll across a map without reloading a Web page, as well as introducing tools that haven't been available previously on the Internet.

Hoping to draw even more users to their already popular Web sites so they can generate more ad revenue, Yahoo and Mountain View-based Google have spent much of the past two years engaged in a game of one-upmanship.

I wonder who will win, at the minute it seems Google have the upper-hand here, lets wait and see!
