How we built a take-away menu image search engine in just 50 lines of code
- duck 16y agoI didn't even know Evernote had an API... but now that I do I will check it out. Not related - but this is one of the sweetest sushi menus I've ever seen: http://findmaden.dk/menu/438b98d9-989e-4ea2-8bc0-46e4b6eca27d http://findmaden.dk/menu/438b98d9-989e-4ea2-8bc0-46e4b6eca27...

- danielharan 16y agoThis is a large part of what has sucked about APIs. Before Google Maps, I had to wait days to get a quote on Google and Mapquest services. And with Google Maps, you still had an insane TOS with bizarre caps and no way to pay for it. There was a way to be technically loosely joined, but not legally / business-wise.
