New inspiration, mashing things up and creating API’s

The past 3 months I’m exploring loads of open API and mashup sites. ProgrammableWeb is a great resource for any API and Mashup. The latest news and API changes are posted on here so I’ve put it in my “list of Inspiration” Google Reader.

I started to play around with the RPC/XML class and REST methods in CodeIgniter to create API’s fast, and I’m impressed. I really think that I will build an API in all my future works, It fits perfectly in a Model/View/Contoller webapp, and it is little work for a huge feature.

I was a bit out of inspiration the past weeks. I had loads of work, doing the same things over and over and had no time to look around what great things are happening. Now I finally made some time to realize that loads of great apps are being created. This feeds my inspiration of building a new social app, got some ideas now.. will let you know as soon as I’m ready to show something.
