With the buzz of cuil, now Yahoo, with its service called BOSS (Build your Own Search Service) try to compete in the search engine world.
The BOSS is Yahoo!’s open search web services platform. It allows developers to make its own search engine with unlimited EVERYTHING.
if the previously Yahoo Search API gives you 5000 queries limit per day, now, it’s unlimited.
There are examples built by this API (Application Programming Interface).
hakia, a leading semantic search engine, uses Yahoo! Search BOSS to accelerate its semantic analysis of the Web by accessing the Yahoo! index’s vast amounts of web documents.
Me.dium combined the BOSS API with its insight into the real time surfing activity of the crowds to build a unique “Crowd-Powered” social search engine prototype.
Daylife To-Go is a new self-service, hosted publishing platform from Daylife. Anyone can use this platform to automatically generate 100% customizable pages and widgets. Daylife To-Go uses the BOSS API platform to power its Web search module.
Cluuz generates easier to understand search results through patent pending semantic cluster graphs, image extraction, and tag clouds. The Cluuz analysis is performed in real-time on results returned from BOSS API.
And the good news is, the BOSS will come with revenue sharing, like integration with Yahoo Sponsored Search. We hope this will come soon.
I’d like to hear your feedback. Please comment for this.
