You're going to have to be more specific. Are you looking to read/scrape index an existing site (FB, Twitter, Amazon) or are you building your own? What does your existing database schema look like? What do you want people to search on? ---

Yes Nick, you're right, maybe it's to broad. But any mapping will be useful for me at the time. I'm starting with all this stuff and take a look at a complete example (if it's a realy use case better) can be very useful. 2012/7/12 Nick Dunn [nick@nick-dunn.co.uk](mailto:nick@nick-dunn.co.uk): > You're going to have to be more specific.
