My XML Application

News Sieve
NewsSieve is my xml product. It pulls in news feeds using Yahoo and displays them at a certain time that the user specifies. For example if they want football scores they select the day and times they want it and then it will appear on their home page once they sign into the website.

Problems it solves
What NewsSieve does save the user time. Instead of them having to click numerous links and search through lots of articles to find what they want. All they have to do is use NewsSieve to filter out all of the unwanted stuff and display links to what they want. Not only does it do this it also allows the user to select what time they want these links to appear so they do not have too many links at one time thus helping the problem of information overload.

How does it work?
It works by using a yahoo key which is needed to access the API. Once you access the API it does a search using the term the user has entered. The search is then displayed in an XML file and then NewsSieve pulls in tags from this XML document and then displays the top 10 in a handy list for the user on their home page. It does all of this and it uses the times the user enters to display them at the exact time the user asks.
