APIs to share content

 

This section is dedicated to the use of APIs to share content.

The practice of publishing APIs allows web communities to create an open architecture to share content and data among communities and applications. In the same vein, content created can be dynamically posted and updated in multiple locations on the web. Moreover, photos can be shared from sites like Flickr and Photobucket to social network sites like Facebook and MySpace.

Certainly, content can be easily embedded. For instance, embedding a presentation from SlideShare on a LinkedIn profile. Moreover, content can be dynamically posted. Sharing live comments made on Twitter with a Facebook account, for instance, is enabled by their APIs. Similarly, video content is easily embedded on sites which are served by another host.

Likewise, user information can be shared from web communities to outside applications. However, this delivers new functionality to the web community that shares its user data via an open API. One of the best examples of this is the Facebook Application platform. Another is the Open Social platform.
