Yahoo has launched an interesting feature to their Image Search which lets you do Sightseeing Without Leaving Yahoo Image Search.

There is no separate section. When you type in a city in image search, Yahoo will suggest related points of interest to your search, giving you more relevent information about your city search. I searched for Las Vegas on Yahoo image search, and it showed me Bellagio, Caesar’s Palace, Paris Las Vegas etc on left hand navigation bar that will include image results for various points of interest and popular destinations within Las Vegas. Further clicking on any of the popular joint shows the image results of that place or building.

I dont see logic behind Microsofts danglings with different domains and though Google has 3 times move searches, Yahoo is the one which is scoring over its competitors with scores of innovating and well thought our features like Search Assist, thumbnail images and preview panes for Image Search.
