Open Hack Day 2009: London: on Christian Heilmann - Remixing Web Data for Your Hacks: The Easy Way
Christian Heilmann - Remixing Web Data for Your Hacks: The Easy Way
Chris Heilmann shows you how you can use YQL as a shortcut to spend your 24 hours of hacking concentrating on your hack rather than getting frustrated ploughing through API documentation.
YQL is a meta-API that gives you a SQL-style interface to web services and web content.
The YQL platform provides a single endpoint service that enables developers to query, filter and combine data across Yahoo! and beyond. YQL exposes a SQL-like SELECT syntax that is both familiar to developers and expressive enough for getting the right data. Through the SHOW and DESC commands, developers can discover the available data sources and structure without opening another web browser.
More information can be found at the YQL Documentation .
