9. How do I find the
time?

10. By using cool free
stuff.

11. But first, let’s take a
look at what Yahoo
can do for
publishers.

12. Good, isnt’ it?

13. Now, YQL...

14. YQL h?p://developer.yahoo.com/yql/console/

15. YQL h?p://developer.yahoo.com/yql/console/
select {what} from {where}
where {condi&ons}

16. YQL turns the
internet into a
database.

17. Getting photos from
flickr:
select * from flickr.photos.search where
text="barcelona"

18. Finding Madrid:
select * from geo.places where text="madrid"

19. Finding photos
taken in Madrid:
select * from flickr.photos.search where woe_id in
(select woeid from geo.places where text="madrid")

20. Articles of the New
York Times:
select * from nyt.ar&cle.search where
query="football"

21. Headlines of
elpais.com:
select content from html where url="h?p://
elpais.com" and xpath="//h2/a"

22. Keywords extracted
from elpais.com
headlines.
select * from search.termextract where context in(
select content from html where url="h?p://
elpais.com" and xpath="//h2/a"
)

23. elpais.com
headlines in English:
select * from google.translate where q in(select
content from html where url="h?p://elpais.com"
and xpath="//h2/a") and target="en"

24. Updating Twitter:
use 'h?p://www.yqlblog.net/samples/
twi?er.status.xml';
insert into twi?er.status
(status,username,password)
values (
"In your redinnova, blowing ur mindz",
"codepo8",
"didyoureallythinkIshowit?"
)

25. Updating
Wordpress:
insert into wordpress.post
(&tle, descrip&on, blogurl, username,
password)
values
("Test Title", "This is a test body",
"h?p://ajaxian.com", "codepo8", "iedoesitright")

26. A friend of mine
complained that it
is hard to do
research with
search engines.

27. select * from query.mul& where queries='
select Title,Descrip&on,Url,DisplayUrl
from microso_.bing.web(20) where query="cat";
select &tle,clickurl,abstract,dispurl
from search.web(20) where query="cat";
select &tleNoFormabng,url,content,visibleUrl
from google.search(20) where q="cat"
'

30. YQL is open - if you
want your data in
this system, all we
need is an address
where to get it :)

31. Data is great, but
what about
displaying it?

35. People do not want
to wait.

37. h?p://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/

38. We have the what,
the how, now about
the where...

39. h?p://developer.yahoo.com/geo/

40. Our geo
technologies help
you find locations in
web content.

42. h?p://icant.co.uk/geomaker/

43. h?p://icant.co.uk/geomaker/

44. h?p://developer.yahoo.com/geo/

45. Finding lat/lon
locations is easy -
giving them context
is harder.

47. h?p://isithackday.com/geoplanet‐explorer/

48. But analysing your
own content and
turning it into a map
shouldn’t be hard.

49. <script src="addmap.js"></script>
<script>
addmap.config.mapkey = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
addmap.analyse('content');
</script>

50. So check out our
social tools, play
with YQL and if you
have cool things to
share - tell us!
