Who's in the News?

Post categories:

| 13:51 UK time, Thursday, 12 May 2005

Description
This is similar to the wiki proxy, but inside out: first it extracts people, places and things from the latest news stories, (using the Lingua::EN::NamedEntity Perl module) and then tells you which news stories refer to them - the result: which people, places and organisations are making the ´óÏó´«Ã½ news right now.

Lingua::EN::NamedEntity is far from perfect, and that's pretty much the major weakness in this prototype.
