I have been using the Google Dictionary API and accessing it with this url:
http://www.google.com/dictionary/json?callback=a&q='test'&sl=en&tl=en&restrict=pr,de&client=te
However, now this url throws an error.
Then, I found this site: http://google-dictionary.so8848.com/meaning?word=test and this works fine. Digging around their site I found the same url as mine in their code. Yet, when copied and pasted into a browser also throws an error.
So, I believe somehow this site is still able to access this Google dictionary API though I don't know what url to try and/or if anyone has a suggestion for a different Dictionary API.
This service is no longer free, it is still the same API, but you have to pay to let you use it in your site or application. better to use an alternative solution like

When you share a file on OneDrive programatically, you get the long link, something like that:
https://onedrive.live.com/redir.aspx? cid=02b2003892980058&resid=2B200389298**!371&parId=2B2003892980058!303&authkey=!AA4PmQJeIl6O-Ks&v=3&ithint=photo%2c.jpg
If you do this through the OneDrive site, you first get the long link, but after that you are given the opportunity to shorten it. However, I do not see a functionality to shorted the shared link being available in OneDrive's API. Is it possible to shorted the link programatically?
The OneDrive service uses Bit.ly to perform the link shortening, rather than using OneDrive as the proxy since we have additional security measures in place to prevent over-usage I'd recommend you use the Bit.ly or another URL shortening service APIs directly for your scenario.
Thanks for the tip! Had the exactly same issue but couldn't solved it by using Bit.ly service. Such a pitty we (non-MS collaborators/insiders) cannot use the aka.ms service API that's great, haha. Had to go to another URL Shortener that worked great ( https://www.tiny.cc/ ). Cheers

I've never accessed a web API, and I'm looking for a thorough introduction. Specifically, I want to access Google APIs from a Mac OS X application. I can successfully find similar code, copy and paste, but I really want to understand how this all works, and can not find any beginner text of the subject.
Apple's introduction to using NSURLConnection is here, and there's some Apple sample code here. Google also has a gdata-objectivec-client client library, which I've never used, but sounds like a drop-in solution to accessing Google's data services. The Google project page has links to overview slides, an introduction and example applications.

I just registered for a yahoo developer API key. They did not e-mail me a link to it or information. It has been approved, but I can't figure out where to view the resulting API. All links with google seem to point to the application page, again.
Where the heck can I find my API key?!
ps: I hate you, Yahoo.
I found the answer:
Visit the "My Projects Page" at https://developer.apps.yahoo.com/projects and click on the project you want the API key for.
When you request the API itself it must be https://developer.apps.yahoo.com/wsregapp/
Yes, there is no link or shortcut visible there to view already approved API.
But I found this, just add ?view to view API you had.
just like this
https://developer.apps.yahoo.com/wsregapp/?view
Hope it helps

As we all know, Twitter consistently has problems keeping their service up and running.
There are literally dozens of Twitter clones out there. Does anybody know of a Twitter clone with an API that is as similar as possible to Twitter's API as possible?
Thank you.
identi.ca is twitter clone based in the opensource status.net solution with a twitter-compatible API: http://status.net/wiki/API
Take a look at identi.ca:
http://status.net/wiki/TwitterCompatibleAPI
Now that microblogging has been around for a while, there are some other options than http://status.net (previously http://laconi.ca).
Floopo
There are probably more, but this is the first I'd seen - try googling for "microblogging twitter clones" if you haven't yet.

Does anyone know if there is something like a Limewire API? I need to be able to make Limewire download files programmatically.
EDIT: It seems Limiwire doesn't have an API. Is there any other Gnutella P2P cliente that does?
I suppose focusing a little more upon your requirement, you've got the Gnutella downloader service/class/package API thing.
http://wiki.limewire.org/index.php?title=Gnutella_downloader
It allows you to query and download direct to the network.
Then extending that idea - you have jTella, API source for Gnutella network.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jtella/
Unfortunately, there is not. Also, unfortunate: the source code is terribly difficult to read/modify. If, however, you're up to the challenge, then you can simply write your own application on top of limewire-core, which is seperate form the GUI.
Not sure about a true api - but I found this by googling your title:
http://wiki.limewire.org/index.php?title=Javadocs
Seems to be built in Java. Entire set of packages seem to be there too.
