I'm building a web application and i want to send Snail Mail automatically by server side, Is there any good APIs for that? ( i don't mind about the cost )
P.S. I'll hate you if you say it's not programming related, and i bet many coders here would love to know.
Thanks!
Here's a list of mailing services I found with APIs, or something close to it
https://click2mail.com/ (REST and SOAP)
http://www.postalmethods.com/ (SOAP)
http://l-mail.com/ has an 'integration' account. It is not clear how automatable sending a letter is.
http://www.cfhdocmail.com/ (SOAP)
http://www.ezgram.com/ has an HTML based interface you might be able to reverse engineer
https://www.trypaper.com/ (REST)
https://www.lob.com/ (REST)
I just found Postal Methods API. I haven't really seen any others.

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

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.

Looking for examples of Push APIs, other than the websocket or the comet or the pubsub.
Need examples specifically for communication between two systems (versus Client/Browser - Server). In other words it doesn't have to be over HTTP.
PubSubHubbub A simple, open, server-to-server web-hook-based pubsub (publish/subscribe) protocol as an extension to Atom and RSS.
They also have a wiki page for comparing different protocols.
There are several somewhat evolved APIs for this. Here is one for jQuery. Here is a blog post describing how to implement this in ASP.NET. It's a difficult framework to idea due to that pesky constant connectivity thing.

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.

I'm writing an XML-RPC service that will be consumed by third parties and was wondering what the best way of documenting it would be.
As far as I can see, XML-RPC doesn't have any equivalent to SOAP's WSDL to provide a description of the service, so presumably it's something I will have to document by hand?
So far I've come accross examples such as that found here and here where documentation basically consists of an example call with place holders for data.
Is there any better method than this that I'm missing?
Thanks.
Check out XML-RPC Introspection. It is about the closest thing to a standard that you are going to find. XML-RPC does lend itself to simple documents of input/output descriptions. If you want something that can be processed programatically, then implement or enable introspection.
