Introduction to Open Hack Day
Nov 5th
Went to Wetiga yesterday after work to meet some of the guys from Yahoo USA and Yahoo South East Asia. Michael Jr is one of them and he is presenting the new Yahoo front page design with codename M…. (okay I forgot what he called it but it starts with an M lol). By the way, not everyone will be able to access the front page as they are rolling out slowly and probably by the end of the year.
Michael Smith giving a talk on internet trend
Michael then goes on talking about the what’s available on the Yahoo Developer Network. Some of the examples that he mentioned was Yahoo Blueprint for mobile, Yahoo Query Language or YQL in short Yahoo User Interface best known as YUI. I have personally used the Yahoo Blueprint and YUI for my development and I can say that they are awesome.
Anyway I’ve also talked to them about an issue that have been occurring to legal websites whereby emails sent to Yahoo emails are being marked as a spam. Indonesia is one of the country where email spamming is the norm and they do take that seriously. The easiest and hardest thing to do is to get into their “white list”, just like Facebook and many others, to ensure that all emails are being delivered.

There is a network guy as well, his name is Adam, and he came all the way from Sunnyvale to Indonesia to meet some of the major players in international networks to talk about how to improve Yahoo services to Indonesia. There are a lot of challenges that he mentioned such as hardware issues, languages, technology and list goes on. For me I just hope they have a mirroring or at least direct peering with most major players in the network.
Not to forget I also met guys from WayToDeal.com, OgahRugi.com, Urbanesia.com, AdaDiskon.com & CariPromo.com
