I'm using my app for product barcode scanning and storing product related meta-data.
I'm currently using UPCDatabase to get product information but this API does not give me any images.
Is there an easy image searching API to use in this scenario ? My first choice would have been the Google Image Search API but that has been deprecated..
I'm representative of http://aerse.com. Aerse provides API to get product images with the following features:
They are taken from official sites.
There is an API to get thumbnails
Transparent images, that could be embedded into different designs
Here is the sample workflow:
Get product name from UPC database
Get Image link from Aerse using product name
Download/embed thumbnail/full image
Although Aerse has UPC search as well, it's UPC database has less data then UPCDatabase. Most of the official sources don't provide UPC/EAN codes.

I'm building a website whereby if the international space station is in the dark (in Earth's shadow), it will do A, otherwise it'll do B.
How can I achieve this? The closest I have come is a Flash file, which I've decoded to a 3000+ file that I can't make sense of. I've thought about using an API, which I can call every second, that show this information, but have not been able to find one.
See This:
It is mentioned about the ISS too.
The basic gist is, if you visit this https://api.wheretheiss.at/v1/satellites/25544 , you will get the details response in JSON, which you can easily parse and use.
note , that the 25544 is the ID for ISS.
If I am not mistake, there is a 'visibility' field too, which you can just check for light.

I have an idea for a new project that would require me to get the news feeds from many RSS news feeds. I am unable to find a free or affordable API that lets me do this. All I have found is NewsCred, which is significantly too expensive for me. It doesn't seem practical for me to manually input the feeds of 2000 different newspapers both from a time standpoint, and due to potential legal-related licensing issues.
What about Superfeedr? (I created it!). We provide an API that will do the fetching, parsing and and diffing of all the feeds you supply, in realtime.
The main difference with NewsCred is that you are the one picking your sources and supplying them to us. We accept any kind of RSS/Atom feed and already power services like IFTTT for example.

I'm looking for a simple way to tell if an app is using the Okuma API. There are several applications running on a control and I don't see any indication. I've tried renaming the Okuma API dll's and I can make some of them crash by not being able to find them but that can't be the best way.
I'm writing my own app too, I want to follow the standard. Is there any built in splash screen or standard way to show an app is using the API? (Something like Intel-Inside but Okuma THINC Inside, etc) I've tried searching for the Okuma logos and I see several different versions being used but none that signify anything about API and none that really look standard for indicating API usage.
At this time there is no official logo for the purpose your describing.

I have to develop an commercial application with mapping.
I can't use Google Maps because of the 10k$/year for the premier API...
I tried Mapstraction with OpenStreetMap, nice but with some limitations.
There is no geocoding available apparently.
Is there a good free(or affordable) service available anywhere with mapping & geocoding functionnalities ?
Thanks
If this question is still valid, I think you should check Open Data Map APIs, in Open Web Services section. No limits, no signup tricks to get the API keys, everything free for real!
There is a pull in github for the feature : https://github.com/mapstraction/mxn/pull/98

does anyone know if there is a stock market news API out there? Hopefully one that covers the major publishers like Reuters, Bloomberg, NYT, and WSJ?
Have you looked at Xignite? There is a fee for it, but you can pull headlines and stories.
Here's a link to more information about their news feed.
It's a SOAP-based API.
HTH.
please use this api url to get news of us market, change s="" as per you search
http://feeds.finance.yahoo.com/rss/2.0/headline?s=a®ion=US&lang=en-US
Try Google's Finance feeds.
https://www.google.co.uk/finance/company_news?q=LON:VOD&output=rss
Just change the "q" URL argument to the stock you require.
Yahoo Finance provides an easy RSS feed with comma separated stock symbols. I used YQL to create a great web service that I later consume on my app.
There aren’t really much APIs for stocks out there, fortunately, Google provides you a free, yet powerful API to access the stock data that used in Google Finance. (Update once every 5 min, and up to 20 min of delay.)
