its yahoo’s turn to give away freebies.The new yahoo Shortcuts tool offers you to integrate a roll-over or preview badge into your post on some important words which are linked to Important locations, company names, news, tickers and product names and shows relevant results for the same.

I have just installe Yahoo! Shortcuts on this blog and will try it out. What the hell, I get a free T-Shirt out of it, and maybe I help introduce my readers to a new widget.

As you write your blog post, Shortcuts look for Flickr photos, places, companies, products, people and much more.

If Yahoo! shortcuts finds relevant content, it will let you know. Just click the Review this post button to see what Yahoo found for you.

Ok - thats a stock image. I actually found 2 shortcuts for this post.

I’ll have to play with this for a bit and see how I like it.
