Yahoo Adds Movie Showtime Shortcut

Gary Price (via SEL) noted Yahoo's recent addition of a movie showtime shortcut.

"Showtimes" is the trigger - search for "showtimes Raleigh" or "showtimes Lexington" and you'll see movie listings in the top position.

It's interesting that they knew that my Lexington was in Kentucky, without my having to type in "showtimes Lexington, KY." But what if I wanted to search for showtimes in Lexington, MA? Pretty simple: "showtimes lexington, MA."

My "showtimes Hong Kong" and "showtimes Paris" didn't trigger the shortcut results. Nor did "showtimes London." "Showtimes London, ky and "Showtimes Paris, ky" did.

Read about Yahoo search shortcuts useful to search engine optimizers.
