Web 2.0 Discovery: The Yahoo! API

Yahoo! has overtaken Google in the AJAX Open API deal. While Google opens up Maps and stuff, Yahoo! takes the wind out of the competition's sails by opening up the entire DHTML/XML/Javascript library for building rich internet applications. Free, even for commercial use.

I tried to play with it over the weekend, but need to work from Yahoo's examples, because it didn't quite work for me while following the API documentation. Probably syntax, schmintax.
