Google search / Yahoo search

Are these two searches linked somehow?

How much is Google search and the new Yahoo search tied together? When Google "rearranges" their SERP after a dance, Yahoo's SERP brings up the same or similar results...at the same time. It's like a mirror site in many regards.

Do a search - any search - at Y!, then scroll down to the bottom of the page and read the very last line.
Google have powered the Y! results for some months now, but this is not expected to last beyond the end of the summer, when Inktomi results/technology will supposedly be factored in somehow.

I posted this in the Yahoo forum, but it relates to Google as well. Maybe since the traffic in forum3 is massive compared to yahoo, someone will have some insight.

Is there any links to info about how INK and Yahoo may work together. Someone mentioned that they saw a German article about some supersearch but could not provide a link.
