Attention Developers: Expo API RTW
The first version of the Expo API went live this week. The API gives developers read access to the Expo classifieds listings database. All our listings are geo-tagged, so there are some cool posibilities for mashups with some of those mapping APIs.
The API docs are published on MSDN and you can find them here. You can get started by signing up for an Application key at http://expo.live.com/myapikeys.aspx.
If you've got a slick working demo using our APIs, please let us know at expoapi@microsoft.com so we can link to it. The nuttier and more creative, the better! Also, make sure you post a link from this blog post.
Remember, this release is our first crack and exposes basic functionality - we're looking to impove it over the next few months. Below are some of features that are on our to-do list. Let us know what you think at expoapi@microsoft.com!
Easier location lookup (by Zip or city)
Power search (including attributes)
User's Messenger buddies' listings
Account information (unread messages, listing counts, saved searches)
Random listings
