Very exciting to see del.icio.us joining Yahoo! today.
They’ve got XML APIs as well as a JSON interface, which means that as of today, we’re supporting them on the Y! Developer Network, hooray!
JSON is a very interesting way to build AJAX applications without having to proxy the Web service data on your own server; with JSON, you pull down a JavaScript object directly to the browser client instead of retrieving an XML document, formatting that into HTML on your server, and blasting that page to the client.
Connect the dots: Flickr, Upcoming.org, blo.gs, del.icio.us. What do they have in common? They all had APIs for developers in place before we bought them. Something to ponder.
