Yahoo! Search BOSS
Posted on | July 12, 2008 |
Yahoo! has launched a new service that will benefit all Web Developers. Yahoo! BOSS or Build your Own Search Service is the new open search web services Platform.
Yahoo! Search BOSS (Build your Own Search Service) is an initiative in Yahoo! Search to open up Yahoo!’s search infrastructure and enable third parties to build revolutionary search products leveraging their own data, content, technology, social graph, or other assets.
This new Yahoo! BOSS will let you create your own Search Engine just like Google Search but theres a little twist to it. If you think that Yahoo! BOSS is just like another search API, its not. It is a truly open API with only few rules and limitations. Huh? Yeah you heard it right, you have to live with it. There are rules everywhere you go and everything has its limitations. And good news for money makers, Yahoo BOSS is planning to have search monetization. I wonder if those loyal Google users will switch to Yahoo?
