Subject: Deep Web Search From Yahoo

A new search service from Yahoo! announced on Thursday will position the
internet media company as a distributor and aggregator of paid-for content
from an area known as the ?deep web?.

In what could prove to be a challenge to online services such as Reed
Elsevier's LexisNexis and Dow Jones' and Reuters' Factiva, Yahoo Search
Subscriptions is launching with initial content from just seven sources.

Subscription services that have signed up with Yahoo include
ConsumerReports.org, The Wall Street Journal Online, TheStreet.com and The
New England Journal of Medicine. In the coming weeks, Yahoo plans to add
content aggregators Factiva and LexisNexis AlaCarte.
