Yooname is a funny name, I don't really understand it but so many of the web 2.0 names are taken so I will let them slide this time. Anyway, it is too awesome to harass. It is named entity recognition software, yes reader you are right, I don't really know what that means except that when I put some text into YooName's portal the thing identifies people, places, etc. It knows people. It knows my secrets.
Person, Organization, Location, Facility, Product, Event, Natural object,
Unit Miscellaneous:
Could there be future in named entity recognition for context aware linking option for services such as NetFlix so when coming across a film you are interested in while browsing using a NER filter would allow you to click and add to your que using a simple greasemonkey java enabling script plugin for Firefox.
Context aware java applications?
