The exclamation point (!) is a feature unique to Yahoo! Search. It means "take me there!"

If you search with a "!" added at the end of your favorite Yahoo! feature or service , you'll bypass search results and go directly to the main page of that service on Yahoo!. This is a new way to navigate throughout the Yahoo! Network. For example:

• Type "sports!" to go to the Yahoo! Sports home page.
• Type "mail!" for the Yahoo! Mail home page.
• Type "finance!" to go to the Yahoo! Finance home page.

Get Around Yahoo!
Simply type in to the search box any of the below Yahoo! products and services, followed by a "!" and go straight there.
