I want to get show information from myspace artists. One way I could do this is ask an artist to input their myspace URL and I could try to scrape the page.
What I would really like to do is ask the artist for their myspace credentials and use the myspace api to get their show data. I cannot find how to do this on the myspace developers site. Does anyone know?
And as a side question, if I decide to go the page scraping route, is that legal? I feel like a lot of people do this.
Try out http://livekick.com . It includes all music concerts posted on myspace.
Found this great article on just that: scraping myspace for tour dates. Haven't tested it but looks good.

I have a private business Twitter account and I would like to know when someone clicks any link inside one of my posts. This solution cannot assume that we know the form of the link being posted.
For example a twitter post like this:
Have you guys heard of this amazing site called google?
I would like to see how many people clicked on this google.com link. I don't need to know any specific information about who they are, just if it was clicked or not.
Ideally I would want this from the API but crawlers and plugins are also possible. I would like to avoid using a paid tool but those would be acceptable.
I think you have multiple choices:
Use google firebase or google analytics
Create your own short link services by python or any other programming languages.
Just search in the google and look for short link generators which gives appropriate service.
Hi using the twitter api you should be able to understand how many clicks a link has.

But to have all this info automated you might need to use a third-party tool.
This should be the most straight forward solution.
I was already aware that using Twitter's API you could link any tweet you made on Twitter onto a feed on another website.
However, I want to possibly, in the future or right now, be able to use YouTube's API to link my posts on my community page to my website updates. Of course, I would rewrite the code and get rid of my Twitter updates and API and replace it with the YouTube community posts API, but first I need to know if it is even possible. I know, YouTube community posts are relatively new, so there might not be an easy answer for this. Maybe someone could point me in a direction to find answers, if there are any. I could make a post about this on the YouTube support forums, but I'm sure you're all aware that the most I'll get is an automated response, not a real person to help me out. Any help is appreciated. I look forward to your responses and advice.
Hi, I want to get the user list in one Twitter post as picture shown. but I didn't find the API which I can get this kind of data on Twitter. Is there anyone know how can I get this data. Thanks
The official API does not include that functionality.
You will find that there are lots of actions which are available on the official website & apps which are not allowed in the API.
Sorry.
I am sure that I am being very blind or stupid somewhere along the way but I have looked for this answer for a while and haven't come up with anything!
I have been working on getting my actionscript app working with Google's Oauth mechanisms which is all working great now but I can't for the life of me work out how to get details on the currently logged in user.
I want to get get the user's name (alias or full name I don't care) and a thumbnail url to display at the top of my app to make it clear who is logged in.
I have looked in general google api docs, drive docs and youTube docs and not found it anywhere...
I'm sure this is a really easy answer for someone to give!
Thanks
Add this to the scope -
https://www.googleapis.com/
auth/userinfo.profile
And after authorization is
done, get the information
from - https://
www.googleapis.com/oauth2/
v1/userinfo?alt=json
It has loads of stuff -
including name, public profile
url, gender, photo etc.

I was wondering how I could display the prominent pages (such as About, Contact Us, Pricing, etc) of my website when it is searched for in Google. Currently Google search result only shows the homepage of my website. I want it to display prominent pages underneath as well, something like this:
I would really appreciate any help. Thanks guys!
These are called Google Sitelinks. You can find Google's explanation here. https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/47334?hl=en
The process is automated, you cannot add sitelinks, but you can remove ones you think shouldn't be there when you see them, through Google Webmaster Tools.
