Hello all, I've seen a couple members of this list twitter about this announcement, but I thought it would be good to mention it here a little more formally. As of yesterday,[1] Yahoo! has started providing all of the semantic data we've harvested directly through our BOSS Search API.[2] Previously, this data was only available in the SearchMonkey developer tool,[3] and was difficult to see in bulk. A little easter egg: if you want to see how many URLs we have with RDFa, you don't need to call the BOSS API. Instead just use the following search: http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=searchmonkeyid:com.yahoo.page.rdf.rdfa We think that's actually an undercount; Ben Adida and others have provided some helpful suggestions for refining how our extractor works, and I expect we will be harvesting RDFa even more voraciously in the coming months. :) If you want to compare our RDFa coverage to our microformat coverage, use searches like: http://search.yahoo.com/search? p=searchmonkeyid:com.yahoo.page.uf.<microformat> where <microformat> is hcard, hresume, etc. Best regards, Evan Goer Yahoo!
