O HAI!

I’m Chris

Thursday I left London

Yesterday at the same time I was away presenting at an Open Source conference.

Ankara is different...

32 hours, 10 on planes, 7 in airports.

Ankara is different...

I took of my shoes 6 times, my belt 4 times and booted up my computer 6 times to

show it is not a bo...

So if I seem confused, this is the reason (not the mini bar)

YUI is...

YUI is built by Yahoo for our needs and to make us work effectively together world-

wide.

If it works for us and supports our scale – it is very likely to be good enough for you, too.

Never gonna run around and desert you

YUI is...

There is a massive community supporting the YUI. Subscribe

to the list and you will get information very quickly.

If you’ve built something cool using it, tell us and we’ll tell

the world.

Never gonna make you cry

YUI is...

The biggest frustration of web developers is browser

inconsistencies.

YUI is built with the Graded Browser Support as one of its core principles and will work

with the supported ones.

Never gonna say goodbye

YUI is...

So what if something terrible happens to Yahoo?

Fork it!

YUI is open source, BSD licensed.

Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

You will know when things go wrong and it is easy to trace

what happened.

You have full control and get notified about things that

And brought them into our infrastructure.

SearchMonkey opens Yahoo search result pages for

developers.

Much like GreaseMonkey opens all web sites for

developers.

The difference is that users don’t need to use Mozilla but install scripts in their Yahoo

profile instead.

These scripts (monkeys) are triggered by URL matching

and enhance the search result display.

There are two types of enhancements.

Enhanced results override the original display.

Infobars add drop-down menus:

You write your monkeys in secure PHP

(no file or cookie nasties allowed)

And you can use any information we know about

this URL.

And if there is not enough information...

Use XML-Based Atom Feeds, RDF markups, Microformats, OpenSearch data or build a

Custom Data Service.

For example:

Using microformats in the BBC site, we can display showtimes of programs

already in the result page:http://www.digital-web.com/articles/embedded_data_with_searchmonkey/
