Yahoo local results in Google serps

Anyone else seen this?

I don't usually take much interest when I see different stuff in the Google serps, but I thought this was interesting so I thought I'd see if anyone else had came across it.

I've just found a couple of Yahoo Local searches listed in Google serps (the yahoo search results are for the keyword I search for).

2 results (one main, one nested) in this format:

h*ttp://local.yahoo.com/DC/Washington/1111111/widget+widget2+widget3/22222222/keyword+keyword2+keyword3/

Where:

> 1111111 and 2222222 where random numbers (IDs)
> "widget" seemed to be a main sub category
> "keyword" was the 3 word phrase I searched for (no location specified)

On the local.yahoo.com page, the search boxes are filled in with the keyword (but when submitted, don't bring up the same results or URL).

Anyone seen this before?

I have another thread on hold that is a little similar. Its a travel.yahoo.com form where you can submit info to change the page on yahoo travel. The weird thing is that the cached page includes what someone entered on the form before submitting it.

Were you able to "find" the page / search results via Yahoo?

I tried but couldn't.

A manual trawl through the directory and a local search (even the same search terms) yielded different pages.
