Get Tags with Yahoo! Term Extraction

This is a start:

The Term Extraction service provides a list of significant words or phrases extracted from a larger content.

It can be implemented by making use of the Yahoo! API [1]. One might then need to sort out the result set a bit and use them as \”tags\”. Since this blog has no cache and the API only lets me have a limited number [2] of requests a day, I will not dive into it yet 😉 For those using PHP, there is a so called yahoolib availabe.
