Because I have been playing with Amazons web service, I was wondering if anyone else knew of any other good web services out there.
Specifically I am looking for UK based retail Web services like Amazon, a Tesco, Asda or Virgin etc one would be great. But any will do, I am finding it hard to find any decent easy to read resources on the Internet :) And that UDDI stuff, sheeeesh! :)If anyone has any information on these can you post them in the comments. I would be greatful, I will report any findings as I see.Retail- Amazon: Quite good but I might ask for some features
- Ebay: Not too sure, don't really want to pay for it :)
- Yahoo: Very good little REST API, I like it so far
- Alexa: Not tried it but it looks okay, I think it is based around the Amazon API
- Google: Not Tried it yet.
Companies I would like to see publically available API's for
- Tescos
- Asda
- Dixons
- Commet
- Game
- Waterstones
- Kelkoo: Not really a retailer, but I have some ideas
- Virgin Megastores
- HMV
- Easy Jet,
- Ryan Air
- Play.com
The list goes on.
I lead the Chrome Developer Relations team at Google.
