Hi Again Everyone, Just to let you know I have opened the source code for www.atopical.com at https://github.com/PaulKinlan/a-topical/tree . I call the search engine a dynamic vertical search engine, because it searches vertically dynamically ;)
It uses Yahoo Boss and searches Yahoo for the top 10 results for a given subject, then using these results then searches those sites for the topic your are interested in, so for example you could search for "Ipod" in "Tech News", it would search Yahoo for Tech News, then from the top results search those sites for the word iPod. So if you are interested in Yahoo Boss, you can see what I have done (and tell me how to do it better) and how I have made it work. You will be able to tell from the code that it didn't take very long to create :) Kind Regards, Paul Kinlan On Mar 7, 11:17 am, Paul Kinlan <paul.kin...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Everyone, > > Just to let you know I am in the process of open-sourcing a lot of the Apps > that I have created. > > So far I have done > > -http://www.eweri.com- a url shortening service that gets a lot of use > on TweetDeck (http://github.com/PaulKinlan/eweri) > -http://www.knowyourprivacy.com- a facebook application to show you the > ammount of data you can loose on Facebook ( > http://github.com/PaulKinlan/knowyourprivacy) > -http://www.thetopicthing.com- a meta search engine ( > http://github.com/PaulKinlan/thetopicthing) > > Hopefully it will help all new Google App Engine Developers and show them > what not to do :) > > I have a couple of others that I can release such aswww.twollo.comand some > others. > > I am toying with releasingwww.FriendDeck.com, but there are some practical > issues that I need to sort out with the CodeSigning and stuff for that to > happen. > > Enjoy. > > Paul Kinlan --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
