Covering the most popular Web APIs in a single resource for the first time, this book details the nuts-and-bolts of each and then offers numerous examples of how to use them in real-world situations. By the end of the book you'll have built two fully functional applications one a Windows program, the other a Web application. What you will learn from this book The anatomy of the featured APIs Calling Web APIs using HTTP-POST, HTTP-GET, and SOAP over HTTP Ways to use popular Web APIs from Microsoft Office and mobile devices How to use multiple APIs together Creative ways to use APIs Examples of how third parties have used the featured Web APIs How Web APIs can be used for professional application development How to create your own Web API Who this book is for This book is for programmers who want to use Web APIs to build their own applications. No prior experience with Web APIs is required. Wrox Professional guides are planned and written by working programmers to meet the real-world needs of programmers, developers, and IT professionals.
