Is Apple working on an iTunes On Demand Music Streaming Service?
It all points out that maybe Apple is working on an iTunes On Demand Music Streaming Service. First they started banning a few Podcast Apps back in 2008 and now in 2009 they ban a few streaming apps from the App Store claiming they violate Apples Agreements. Boombox for OS 3.0 which is a sort of client to the famous Blip.FM has been under review for the last month with no news if it’s even gonna hit the App Store again.
They are also working with the new HTTP Live Streaming protocol and submitted the specification to the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) a few weeks ago. It seems that there is no doubt that they are cooking something really neat for the iPhone.
I would love to see a good quality On Demand Streaming Service on my iPhone and not having to rely on the randomness of Pandora, Last.FM or AOL Radio Apps.
Is Bing killing Yahoo! Search?
In the graph below we can see the amount of searches done in the top 5 search engines (Google, Yahoo, AOL, Ask Jeeves and Bing) Google being the true leader. Notice the slight growth of Bing over Yahoo in the past month. Scary for Yahoo!?

Yahoo! Query Language (YQL)
The Yahoo! Query Language is an expressive SQL-like language that lets you query, filter, and join data across Web services. With YQL, apps run faster with fewer lines of code and a smaller network footprint.
Yahoo! and other websites across the Internet make much of their structured data available to developers, primarily through Web services. To access and query these services, developers traditionally endure the pain of locating the right URLs and documentation to access and query each Web service.
With YQL, developers can access and shape data across the Internet through one simple language, eliminating the need to learn how to call different APIs.
How Do I Get Started?
- Check out the YQL Console.
- Read how to access YQL from your application.
- Get your API Keys to sign your requests if you need them.
