Question for you sponsor programs out there. How many of you have APIs that let me pull data from your database? For example, can I pull your most recent scene? Can I pull its pictures and hosted video URLs?

I just wrote software like this for a sponsor, and it got me thinking about the possibilities if the majority of sponsors supported this type of data retrieval.

I made a tech demo so you can see what I'm talking about more easily:

http://dev.edgeprod.com/apiclient/index.php

That pulls the most recent scene, and displays a hosted video (if one exists). If not, it shows the "large" picture. It then pulls the scene title, the models in the scene, and the scene teaser text. It pulls the URL for the tour, and a couple of other images as well, and then slaps them up on a page.

At no point does the user (this site, in my example) have access to the "raw" database; it's all done through an API.

If you provide this service to your webmasters, please contact me via ICQ (501917) so I can add you to a massive promotional project. I will include EVERY update you can get me, regardless of niche.
