info directory README

This directory contains libs useful for displaying specialized types of information. Examples would be

• Maps
• Flash
• Youtube/vimeo/etc embedding
• Chart and graph packages
• Markup languages and HTML editors It mixes feeds and displays. This is a deliberate decision to avoid splitting places where the feed and display are inextricably intertwined.

  When we have, or might reasonably have, more than one provider for an info type (e.g. maps), we'll try to have an abstract lib that wraps the specific libs.

  Using the abstract lib rather than the specific one is recommended.

  For some of these the information provider requires an API key. The key files are in /keys Copy the foo.pl.example file to foo.pl and modify with your key.
