Yahoo Site Explorer Gets a Makeover

It has been reported that Yahoo has been playing around with the look and feel of their Site Explorer. Most of the time Yahoo Site Explorer is only used by webmasters because it shows backlinks to any URL and also shows them in authority order (unlike google).

Today, we launched a new look and feel for Site Explorer (http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/new) that provides a more dynamic interface to accommodate future feature roll-outs. The new interface also includes a new Site Summary page to provide statistics for authenticated sites. On top of this, we’re also increasing the number of rules for Dynamic URL Rewriting that you can enter from 3 to 10.

I really wish Yahoo Site Explorer had a lot more features, kinda similar to Google Webmaster Tools. However, any really new and exciting features still havent arrived on Site Explorer. Do you have any suggestions on what they might want to add?
