@aral If you want "open" if the cloud you need to build clients and services around semantically rich media types, instead of APIs. -
@darrel_miller noob question: Any pointers/examples of 'symantically rich API'... ? -
@sumitkm Consider GET https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json … The message claims application/json but RFC 4627 says nothing about timelines! -
@darrel_miller ok, so the API should have explicitly clarified what it was returning 1/2 -
@sumitkm However, if the semantics are in the API it is much harder to achieve interoperability and you can get stuck in "service lock in". -
@darrel_miller *a light bulb flickers to life* :-)... thanks! so in this example, how could we possibly put the semantics in media type? 1/2 -
.
@sumitkm Imagine what would have happened if RSS had been an centralized API. and then imagine if Twitter had used an open data format. -
@darrel_miller Okay the RSS and Twitter comparison I get... Still understanding the activity stream thingy... - 4 more replies
