2008 Technology Awards for MashMaker and SearchMonkey

RWW Award

The Yahoo! SearchMonkey team would like to congratulate our colleagues at Intel MashMaker, who have just received Argentina’s Sodosky Award for Technology Innovation. As we’ve reported before, MashMaker is not only a powerful tool that enables non-programmers to extract semantic data from websites to create mashups, but you can also use MashMaker to rapidly create extractors for SearchMonkey applications. If you haven’t tried using MashMaker and SearchMonkey together yet, you can download MashMaker, click on the little monkey icon and give it a try.

In related award news, we are pleased to announce that ReadWriteWeb has recognized SearchMonkey as one of its Top 10 Semantic Web Products of 2008 for “the best use of Semantic Web by an Internet bigco this year.” We’d like to thank ReadWriteWeb for the recognition, and congratulate all of our co-winners: Powerset, Calais, Dapper, Hakia (powered by Yahoo! Search BOSS), TripIt, BooRah, AdaptiveBlue, Zemanta and UpTake. We know we’re in good company here and we look forward to making greater progress in 2009.
