Summary:  SearchMonkey is one of the first attempts from a major search engine to make use of Semantic Web technologies to enhance search results. In this tutorial, you will implement a Yahoo! SearchMonkey application that enhances blogger.com search listings to include other information about the blog and blog owner. You will first implement a basic application using the default data available from Yahoo!. Then you will create a custom data service to provide your own structured data to SearchMonkey before you develop a more advanced application that takes advantage of this new custom data service.

Help: Update or add to My dW interests

What's this?

This little timesaver lets you update your My developerWorks profile with just one click! The general subject of this content (AIX and UNIX, Information Management, Lotus, Rational, Tivoli, WebSphere, Java, Linux, Open source, SOA and Web services, Web development, or XML) will be added to the interests section of your profile, if it's not there already. You only need to be logged in to My developerWorks.

And what's the point of adding your interests to your profile? That's how you find other users with the same interests as yours, and see what they're reading and contributing to the community. Your interests also help us recommend relevant developerWorks content to you.

What's this?
