Mashable is proud to announce a partnership with Yahoo! Search to challenge the developer community to build an app on Yahoo! Search BOSS. BOSS is a completely open API from Yahoo! Search and has already been proven a successful API with such examples as Me.dium, Hakia and Daylife (more examples of what’s been built here and here).
The BOSS Mashable Challenge pits developer against developer to compete for the grand prize of $2,000 and an article on Mashable about your winning entry. How do you win? Build a kickass mashup – search engine or any other Web app – using the BOSS API and any other data sources/technologies.
Prizes
Grand Prize:
$2,000 and an exclusive article on Mashable about your winning mashup
Runner Up:
$1,000 and Yahoo! and Mashable’s Kudos
