At the end of June myself and Robyn Tippins, the community manager for YDN, were out at ConvergeSC in South Carolina. There were a lot of great talks during this time and all have just been published to http://vimeo.com/convergesc/videos. I would recommend going through the entire gambit because there were some very impressive speakers available.
My talk was an overview of YDN technologies when used in conjunction with YQL. There was a main focus on YQL within this talk.

While I was in South Carolina at the end of June for ConvergeSC, I had the pleasure of working with the folks at Unmatched Style to output a few podcasts talking about some Yahoo! technologies. This is the second podcast of the two where I go over the core features of YQL, with examples.

This year at Adobe Max, Yahoo! had a booth where we were showcasing some of our recent API’s, services, and basically anything we had to provide to the development community. While I was there for the first day of the show, I had to opportunity to sit down with Greg Wilson of Adobe for a small interview on what was coming from their corner to the community.

The second video interview I had a chance to host at Defrag 2008 in Denver, CO was with Gnip’s CTO Jud Valeski. Gnip is an extensible messaging system that allowed companies to access, filter and integrate data more easily from web-based APIs and services.
Gnips core service architecture is one of the offerings within the new Yahoo! Application Platform, accessible through YQL (Yahoo! Query Language). This integration allows users to mashup the Gnip service with that of the Yahoo! social directory, YDN APIs and external data feeds.

While I was at DEFRAG conference in Denver several weeks ago I had the opportunity to conduct a few video product interviews. One of the people I spoke with was Lloyd Hilaiel of the BrowserPlus team. We were talking about what BrowserPlus is and how it can benefit users. I’ll let the video explain for itself.
