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 want to know is there any example or package of golang developed for SHAREPOINT,
Please suggest,
authenticate sharepoint using golang api,
listing all the documents in sharepoint,
getting document from sharepoint to local using api.
above are some of the basic operations that an be done.
As far as I know there aren't any libraries yet, but SharePoint 2013 and later version(s) have powerful REST APIs you can use to interact with SharePoint objects. If there were libraries for Golang, I'd assume they were nothing more than a wrapper around the REST apis.
There's plenty of documentation and examples that will help you with that. I answered a similar question here for Java a while ago.

Are there any plugins out there (similar to Swagger) which provide the ability to document HATEOAS APIs?
The Swagger interface is quite good but it doesn't have level 3 REST support.
I use spring-restdocs in combination with the HAL-browser.
You don't necessarily need HAL for restdocs though, although it is recommended.
Restdocs will generate code samples and link & field descriptors in the asciidoc format. You can then link to these asciidocs from inside the HAL-browser.
To see the result in action (although this is hardcoded), check this out: foxycart. Click on the little doc links next to the rels.
After further investigation I discovered HAL-browser (https://github.com/mikekelly/hal-browser) which is quite good. Although, your API must return content-type of HAL for it.
You don't need to configure anything on the server for this tool. Just open it in a browser and point to your API.

Google Play has Newsstand application (not available everywhere) - https://play.google.com/store/newsstand. It replaces older Currents application. It displays news/articles from many different websites/magazines/feeds.
Does any, official or unofficial, API exist, that would let me use those sources in my own application?
As far as official APIs go, unfortunately Google doesn't provide anything if their API Explorer is any indication. Google News used to have an API, but it was deprecated in 2011.
The closest thing to what I think you're looking for, assuming you want to stick with Google, would be the RSS output from Google News. You can pass an optional query parameter to search for specific topics. For example:
https://news.google.com/news?q=obama&output=rss
If you're looking for a similar service to Play Newsstand that offers an API, check out these:
Some individual sources offer APIs, such as the NYTimes and USA Today
Feedly has a nice-looking API, although I have never used it personally.
Good luck with your search!

is there a good dropbox API for erlang ?
It is possible to use REST to work with dropbox.
Is there a good REST helper library for erlang ?
Thank you.
Erlang definately has its own HTTP client, but I haven't come across a client REST library, but it shouldn't be too hard to roll your own on top of the client. There isn't an SDK for Erlang but AFAIK all the dropbox API SDK's revolve around wrapping the REST API anyway.
If you still interested, I've been working on it, and here is result — https://github.com/StepanKuzmin/erlang-dropbox

Which popular websites out there support an HTTP based API?
I am looking for content of general public interest (hence, Amazon's RESTful API wouldn't qualify, for example).
Some sites which I am aware of:
Twitter
Netflix
Upcoming
Google
eBay
Please note that
Although not a direct programming question, it will help programmers find some inspiration for new projects
A similar question has been asked but didn't get many responses probably because it was very specific about being RESTful.
The site (with blog) "Programmable Web" collects sites, apis and howtos to create mash-ups.
You can search by programming language, protocols, wether you want something with JSON or SOAP and so on and check out existing mash-ups.
