I've loved YQL in demos. But Yahoo doesn't seem to get any buzz around their
geo stuff. They have a lot of cool stuff, but it's so fragmented and I can
never tell if it will grow, mature and/or play nice with other apps. Does
anyone have a better feeling about Yahoo's services and strategy?

sorry to be late to this geowanking but what about the geoplanet
database from yahoo? It's a hierarchical database of place names
Thanks for all of the responses.
After some careful consideration of the responses I received I realize
the challenges of trying to get real world features into the type of
hierarchy I derive.
I'm going to check out the system Geonames is using with RDFa. I think I
might be able to use their
