Daylife is a perfect fit for our strategy of presenting the best and most tightly focused content, whether it is produced by us at USA TODAY or anywhere else on the Web. It helps us provide our readers with a full 360-degree view of a given topic, and adds depth and richness to niche areas important to our readers and advertisers.- Jeff Webber, SVP, USAToday.com
You guys have what seems like an amazingly powerful and easy to use API, we're pretty excited about playing with it and possibly integrating it with Hubdub. - Tom Griffith, Hubdub.com
It's amazing how simple this is to integrate into django. When a view is creating a page, it just calls a thin wrapper function that I put around the daypi module. - Bracket Boy
I found the Daylife API for PHP really easy to use, and coded something up quickly for my site, Brooklyn and Beyond - Brooklyn & Beyond
This tool makes it really easy to get a quick look or dive in deep thanks to our partner Daylife, who built a comprehensive service that yields up-to-the-minute results - The Washington Post
I was trying to make it work by using Google News RSS feeds but turned out impossible since they don't organize their data in the feeds. I now know its possible with the Daylife API - Akash Xavier
Psychic Searcher
http://scheedule.com/~gschech2/Hack/PsychicSearch/
Psychic Searcher analyzes your content and delivers you with relevant resources. Psychic Searcher breaks the traditional ideas of having the user initiate the gathering of resources, by showing relevant items as the user is writing.
Imagine if you were a student writing a paper. Psychic Searcher could analyze what you were writing about and deliver you with the news articles, images, and search results that you need to write your paper.
Psychic Searcher is just an example how what can be done with context analysis. Ideally a tool like Psychic Searcher would be integrated into a text editor like Microsoft Word. It could be used as a tool to retrieve information and images that might be useful to the user. This could be more effective because we could do a context analysis on just the active paragraph. Psychic Searcher is by no means a replacement text editor, but is rather some exploratory development in enhancing the user’s ability to gather information asynchronously.
