Does your app or website use YQL?

We're looking for some cool apps or websites that use YQL.

Please reply to this post if you want to potentially be featured on YDN as a product that uses YQL.

Thanks! -Paul YQL Team

  • I have my website use YQL to go into http://freerice.com, pull members of my group, and then go into their page and use YQL again to pull their stats. I also use it to pull how much money my Relay for Life team has raised. I am actively integrating YQL as much as possible into my site. It is really helpful because I can't do any server-side scripting, so YQL is the perfect solution. My website is http://helpinghuskyobjective.weebly.com.

  • Hello Paul,

    Yes, we're using YQL but are having some stability issues with tables.

    Can you get in touch with me?

    Thanks!

  • Why would you ask for cool sites when folks are having so many problems with your tables. PLEASE address the seemingly hundreds of requests about "TABLE IS CURRENTLY BLOCKED".

    You don't seem to be listening to your users. Your tables are timing out based on globals calls on not individual calls. PLEASE FIX THE PROBLEMS, or don't ask for cools sites because it COOL site infers that it is a 24/7 up and running site.

  • The 'Watch' (stock watch list) tab of my site uses YQL finance:

    Frequently getting this result for queries like the one below for the last few weeks (even today - Sun):

    {"query":{"count":0,"created":"2013-03-24T21:04:40Z","lang":"en-US","results":null}}

    http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select%20Symbol,LastTradePriceOnly,Change,PercentChange,Volume,AverageDailyVolume,LastTradeTime,LastTradeDate%20from%20yahoo.finance.quotes%20where%20symbol%20in%20(%22YHOO%22%2C%22AAPL%22%2C%22GOOG%22%2C%22MSFT%22%2C%22VPHM%22%2C%22AH%22)%0A%09%09&env=http%3A%2F%2Fdatatables.org%2Falltables.env&format=json

  • I have an app which is yet to be release, however I seem to be coming across a few errors. For example just getting quotes on the Dow Jones Index seems to cause an issue.

    select * from yahoo.finance.quotes where symbol = "^DJI"

    Returns with the error (for both JSON and CSV): Column mismatch: [Ask, AverageDailyVolume, Bid, AskRealtime, BidRealtime..............

    Here is link to the query in the console

    Many thanks Tom
