Google data API - README for samples package
|
|
Mar 05, 2008
|
|
|
|
Overview
|
|
========
|
|
The Google data APIs ("GData" for short) provide a simple standard protocol for
|
|
reading and writing data on the web. GData combines common XML-based
|
|
syndication formats (Atom and RSS) with a feed-publishing system based on the
|
|
Atom publishing protocol, plus some extensions for handling queries.
|
|
|
|
Google also provides a set of client libraries for interacting with
|
|
GData-enabled services, in a variety of programming languages. Using these
|
|
libraries, you can construct GData requests, send them to a service, and
|
|
receive responses.
|
|
|
|
Several services currently support the GData API. A complete up-to-date list
|
|
along with respective documentation can be found on the GData site at
|
|
http://code.google.com/apis/gdata.
