Poll: What APIs do you consume most?
Interested in data on what APIs HN users build against most for an APIs related project.
If I'm missing an API that you use, comment (preferably with a link to the API docs) and I'll add it.
Thanks!

- jeremyrwelch 16y agoWasn't aware they had an official API?
- terinjokes 16y agoThey have multiple. Desktop Client, web client, as well as a more traditional API: http://developer.grooveshark.com/ http://developer.grooveshark.com/

- nborgo 16y agoSince you added PayPal, you might as well throw Braintree in there. It's pretty great. I've been happy using it for an app I'm working on. Oh, and Mailchimp's API, too. I have a feeling that this list is going to go on and on. http://www.braintreepaymentsolutions.com/gateway/api http://www.braintreepaymentsolutions.com/gateway/api http://apidocs.mailchimp.com/ http://apidocs.mailchimp.com/

- fertully 16y agoI find some interesting API from Mashape. This is my favorite: http://www.mashape.com/component/BarCodeGenerator http://www.mashape.com/component/BarCodeGenerator
- unit3 16y agoOpenGL/CL. Oh you meant /web/ APIs. As if Javascript is a language anyone really wants to program in. ;)
- justinxreese 16y agoI've actually switched from google to bing maps recently. Finding it easier to use and having more useful returns. I'm actually beginning to write a gem wrapper if anyone agrees and wants to contribute :) http://xjst.in/fUtWeW http://xjst.in/fUtWeW /shamelessplug> But before that, twitter is most used for me.
