Wikia Search issues community-based challenge to Google and Yahoo

Tue, 08 Jan 2008 16:00:00 GMT
Yesterday brought the alpha release of Wikia Search, a new engine built on free software and free culture values. For Wikia co-founder Jimmy Wales, the release is a milestone in the realization of a long-held dream. However, as he tells Linux.com, Wikia Search is still a couple of years from maturity, with many of the details still to work out.

Finance::Quote::Yahoo::NZ(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			      Finance::Quote::Yahoo::NZ(3)

NAME
Finance::Quote::Yahoo::NZ - Fetch nzn stock quotes via Yahoo. SYNOPSIS
use Finance::Quote; my $q = Finance::Quote->new; my %info = $q->fetch("yahoo_nz","DPC"); # Use this module only. my %info = $q->fetch("nz","DPC"); # Failover with other methods. DESCRIPTION
This module allows information to be fetched from Yahoo about stocks traded on the New Zealand Stock Exchange. Information about indexes is not available through this module. This module is loaded by default on a Finance::Quote object, although it can be explicitly loaded by passing the argument "Yahoo::nz" to Finance::Quote->new(). This module provides only the "yahoo_nz" fetch methods. The author (stephen@vital.org.nz) will write a module to access the NZX site if asked nicely. Information obtained via this module is governed by Yahoo's terms and conditions, see http://au.finance.yahoo.com/ for more details. LABELS RETURNED
This module returns all the standard labels (where available) provided by Yahoo, as well as the currency label. See Finance::Quote::Yahoo::Base for more information. SEE ALSO
