Wandora's Yahoo! YQL term extractor is a text classifier based on Yahoo's YQL (Yahoo Query Language) interface and web service. Yahoo's YQL web service accepts short text fragments and returns concepts the service found in given text.

Additional notes

I originally spotted Yahoo's term extraction service and programmed an extractor for that. However, shortly after finishing the extractor Yahoo announced they are going to shut down the term extraction web service API. In their message at the term extraction page they suggest to use YQL based term extraction instead. Luckily it was only a tiny job to create YQL based extractor after original term extractor. The original Yahoo term extractor is still in Wandora as a hidden feature. You'll find it in Tool manager with a name Yahoo Term Extractor.
