API Survey

With services like Mashery, is it still important to have multiple onramps and offramps (data interchange formats, etc)?
What are you most unhappy with your current API?
How do you track the usage of your API?
How much of the Developer facing documentation is generated using the api itself?
Do you use your API (or ANY API) for some / all of your site (eating your own dogfood)?
How do you go about testing your API?

This is a plugin for the soon-to-be-released iPhone game "Binary Game".

Install as a normal wordpress plugin and activate. This plugin provides both a classic plugin and a widget for your sidebar.

	so it's a comic book on the web. Each story starts with a panel on the "left", from there the story goes to the right, panel by panel, and to get from one to the next you can use your keyboard so each panel is centered without having to worry about the scroll bar.
	When it starts, there's just one panel, and anyone can come and make the "next panel" for the story
	or ten panels, whatever they want to push the story forward how they feel it should go
	but, let's say I disagree with their panel, I can branch the story off and make my own panel there and there's a new story line
	so ultimatly, it's a choose your own adventure reading experience
	and the story lines that get the most views will be visually different, like a well-worn carpet

	Interfaces are Dumb (and that's a Very Good Thing)

	Webhooks and Protocols (like Rack) don't care what's on the other side of the
	abyss, if they follow the interface, everyone gets along. We'll look at a
	whole class of problems that can be solved creatively using "protocols". We
	will also look at some popular (and successful) real-world interface
	implementations.

	Webhooks are the unix pipes of the web. Rack is greasing the rails as we speak.
	How can you leverage the synergy of these ocean-boiling enterprise-ready
