AOL Turns on One Clicks for Pro Athletes
If you've ever wanted to look up a pro athlete's stats, you know it can take several clicks to find the information you're looking for. Now, AOL is making stat-finding easier by turning on One Clicks for pro athletes.
One Clicks puts answers directly in the search results. Say, for example, you wanted to check on NHL player Erik Cole's stats with the Edmonton Oilers. He's just this week been traded back to the Carolina Hurricanes and you want to know if it's going to benefit the 2006 Stanley Cup Champions.
Search AOL for Erik Cole and here's what you get:
Notice the One Clicks results below the paid results. (Hopefully that logo will get updated to show the Hurricanes logo anyday now).

good to see a mention of AOL. I use them for a couple of specific searches. Music, Movies, TV...when I don't feel like clicking through Google. Never thought about them for sports...btw what's fanhouse?
