Yahoo! "Open" Shortcuts: Quick Navigation with !

Yahoo! has announced more "Open Shortcuts." The Yahoo! shortcut commands are preceded with an exclamation point and entered into a Yahoo! search box. For example, enter !wiki asbestos at Yahoo! and go straight to the Wikipedia entry for asbestos. Enter !list to see a list of the preconfigured shortcuts. The open shortcuts are ones that can be user configured and tied to a specific Yahoo! login. See the blog post for more instructions and links to the various ways to create these.
