How NPR is Embracing Open Source and Open APIs

,----[ Quote ]
| News providers, like most content providers, are interested in having their 
| content seen by as many people as possible. But unlike many news 
| organizations, whose primary concern may be monetizing their content, 
| National Public Radio is interested in turning it into a resource for people 
| to use in new and novel ways as well. Daniel Jacobson is in charge making 
| that content available to developers and end users in a wide variety of 
| formats, and has been doing so using an Open API that NPR developed 
| specifically for that purpose. Daniel will talk about how the project is 
| going at OSCON, the O'Reilly Open Source Convention. Here's a preview of what 
| he'll be talking about.

| Earlier this summer I had noticed that National Public Radio (NPR) launched a
| brand new open API based on open source technologies. My initial reaction was
| at best skeptical. I assumed any sort of “API” released by a major media
| outlet would turn out to be nothing more than a few customizable RSS feeds.
| If the company was particularly progressive the RSS feeds might include full
| articles, rather than the neutered one-sentence teasers you find in all the
| big name’s syndicated content.
