Any search engine has to get its data from somewhere in order to be able to have a database of internet websites and their data. They do this with what are called spiders. They are software robots that crawl the internet looking for content and updates and sending it back to a central database. This information is then stored so when you search Yahoo or any other search engine for that matter you see relevant data. The Slurp Spider is Yahoo's version of this robot.
