Spotify Playlist App Soundrop Spreads Its Wings With An SDK: Now Anyone Can Have A DJ App. Soundrop, the popular Spotify app that lets users create “rooms” to share streamed-music playlists with others, is turning up the volume on its service. Today, the company is announcing a new SDK so that others can create their own Soundrop-Spotify powered music apps. The service is kicking off with a bang: David Guetta, the French DJ, now has his own Soundrop-powered app, PlayGuetta, on Spotify. Inge Sandvik, co-founder and CEO of Soundrop, tells me that it’s one step in a larger strategy for Soundrop to be provided a platform of its own as a social music service, bringing third parties on to its platform to share and distribute music playlists.

That will also include working on other platforms independently of Spotify as well as services to create video playlists as well. The news comes as Spotify itself looks to improve discovery and interactivity on its platform. The company’s platform is built on Erlang, Sandvik says, which helps it to scale. You can access David Guetta’s app here. XML-RPC Interface. Advogato now has an XML-RPC interface available at the URL To test it, try calling one of the test functions below.

| dev.twitter.com. Create cool applications! | dev.twitter.com. Full WEB 2.0 API List. The Rise Of The API, The Future Of The Web. Last month, Twitter and Facebook made some moves to hide RSS feeds and put focus more on their APIs. There was the typical ranting that followed the news, some in favor of RSS and others not. Now that the conversation and controversy of RSS being killed again has died down, I wanted to address the real question behind Twitter’s and Facebook’s decisions. As I have said before, RSS is not dead, it is infrastructure. RSS had hoped to be adopted by the mass consumer, but the tools did not provide a truly user friendly way to consume it. That being said, a lot of tools are completely dependent upon RSS. Any news reader that aggregates information from various sites uses RSS in the background.

Most, if not all, blogs will publish RSS feeds as well. The real issue at hand is the evolution of the web. If you focus on a single web application, you would never find a reason to really move away from JavaScript and JSON. 73% of the APis on Programmable Web use REST. API Directory - ProgrammableWeb.

Meporter is a location-based news app that enables you to write, photograph, and record video of your local news as it breaks, and then to share those stories with anyone who owns a mobile phone or has an Internet connection. Using the Meporter app on your iPhone or iPod Touch, you can take a picture, make, a video, or write your own story, and post it for the world to see — all in a matter of minutes. You can post about items for sale, new styles and trends, local politics, area businesses, yard sales in progress, traffic conditions – anything that’s happening in your neck of the woods.

Readers will see a user’s location, can comment on stories, and check in as eyewitnesses. Interestingly, Meporter only allows reporters to post local news – and readers to post comments – if they are on location. The app allows you to create a Meporter profile that others can view. While anyone online can follow your stories, only people in your area can comment on your breaking news. CatchFree - Free Community Approved Apps & Services. A free app that helps you remember.

This post originally appeared on the American Express OPEN Forum, where Mashable regularly contributes articles about leveraging social media and technology in small business.

Though the old adage that the customer is always right isn't exactly true, listening to feedback from your customers is important for small business success. Feedback isn't always easy to swallow, but it can be extremely valuable. Your customers are the ones who regularly use your products or services; their input and suggestions can help you make more sound business decisions. Further, encouraging customer feedback can also lead to better business relationships and stronger customer retention.

Soliciting, accepting and organizing feedback can be a daunting task, however. The following tools are designed to help your business solicit feedback via the web and connect with your customers in more meaningful ways. 1. UserVoice creates a simple forum for your users to submit and vote on feedback. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10 Online Tools and Tips for the Budding Entrepreneur.

In a fledgling startup, the last thing you need to worry about is excessive infrastructure or expensive overhead. Your ego might try to get the best of you, telling you that your business needs that fancy schmancy corner office with a city view. Plain and simple: The vast majority of startups — and more established businesses for that matter — don't need a whole lot. 1.

How Brands Can Make the Most of Facebook's New Pages. The new Facebook Pages are finally here, but what does it mean for brands that have struggled to make Pages a business tool on a personal network? The first thing you'll notice is that Facebook Pages are once again made to look like Facebook Profiles.

You have little differentiation anymore between the publicly viewable, often more commercial page, and an individual's private profile. This lack of distinction from an interface standpoint can be confusing to consumers. Below is a breakdown of the changes in the order that Facebook presents them in their new Page tour. 1. When the photos across the top of Facebook profiles first appeared, people were in a panic. Be strategic: If photographs are part of what you do, this is a nice showcase. 2. Not to sound the panic alarm, but tabs as we know them are gone. Be strategic: One thing that the new navigation forces you to do is to examine what superfluous tabs you used to hide next to your six visible tabs. 3. 4. 5.
