Try a search for "jeremy zawodny!".
Neat, huh?
It's one of the new feature: search shortcuts (more detail).
Here's another example. Try a search for "mail!".
Now, if you're bored, see what other stuff is lurking in there. Just try adding an exclamation point to the end of your queries.
Update: someone has been busy looking for more of 'em.

I'm confused. I saw the "!" shortcut for things like mail/personals/weather/etc., but I'm not sure how it's working with relation to your name. I thought, at first, that it might simply be saying "send me to the first entry", but "derek balling!" didn't yield similar results.
And I know you're not part of the "Yahoo navigation", so I'm curious how you rate.
ugh! give me the option. :(
When I clicked on that link I was dissapointed to be taken there straight away -- I would have been impressed if I was taken to a Yahoo search results page with the option of jumping straight through to yours.
Or am I missing the point here?
I like to be in control of my browsing.
First I thought like Derek that this would give me the first search entry, just like googles "i'm feeling lucky"-button, but now it's clear what's the easter egg. Jeremy, have you been involved in this project? And the link would have been more impressive if you had implemented a proper search form with the search term preset.
I wonder what's the going price for the "sex!" shortcut.
