----------------------------------------… 6/3/2009 10:41AM I am very upset. Your soon to be ( July 13 ) defunct yahoo-360 has awesome SEARCH functionality: by string , Location , gender , Age etc. I do not see this in the replacement Yahoo Profiles.

Answer:
From what I've gathered, and conjectured, Yahoo is stressing out over user privacy. There is discussion on the blogs about bringing back the ability to search for users by location and interest. But for now, I'll repeat what we have to work with at the moment. How to search for someone: Browsing for profiles by location or interest is no longer an option but Yahoo has finally put a search link back within easy reach. It can be found in the Connections section on the main page of your profile. Look for the word 'Find' in blue. It will prompt you to enter a name or email. Real name or display name work but not SN unless it’s as an email address. Go figure. A search is only as good as the information you have to start out with. The more you have to search with, the better your odds of finding something. · You can try this: http://profiles.yahoo.com/people-search/ · Or this: http://people.yahoo.com/ · Or this: http://answers.yahoo.com/search/search_advance · If you find a SN, add it to the end of this: http://profiles.yahoo.com/ If you are signed in and you click that last link you will see your own profile. Just backspace to the / to take off your sign name and then type in the one you want to look at after the /. If a main account profile is private, you will see this message: We've launched a new profile on Yahoo!. The user you are searching for either does not exist, or has chosen to keep their profile private. Learn more about the profile on Yahoo!
