Well this is as far as I got in about an hour for adding a /hn tag to Unscatter.com - http://www.unscatter.com/search/?q=%2Fhn+facebook http://www.unscatter.com

Javascript paging still isn't and it needs to be prettied up, but I figure not bad for about an hours worth of work. And a good demonstration of the framework Unscatter.com is built on being suitable for rolling out new apis pretty quickly.
I'd wrap it up today but I got family stuff today, should be complete by 6/20. Until I finish the javascript and layout /hn won't be advertised on the sidebar, but anyone is free to start using it, I won't be turning it off.
- andres 15y agoAwesome! It would be great to start a discussion about ranking algorithms in the HNSearch developer forum (http://groups.google.com/group/hnsearch http://groups.google.com/group/hnsearch). We'd like to implement some ThriftDB features to tweak ranking algorithms automatically but that won't be ready for a while.
- jrussbowman 15y agoI haven't even gotten into ranking yet. I took the example url and rolled with that. I think the first thing I'll focus on is seeing if I can also offer /hncomment and /hnlinks to help people search different types, then work on the algorithms for all 3. Once I have /hn display looking good I can roll it out to the other 2 pretty quickly.
