I believe that opening up your web is very important in order to get people to enable new products on top of your content.

There are some school’s of thought that say to not listen to your users. That it’s better to take a research/observatory approach to usability; using your knowledge and expertise in a field to develop something that would be useful to some audience.

@Brandon: Interesting product. I will look into your API and as I write in the post, I believe that opening up your web is very important in order to get people to enable new products on top of your content.

Mattias,

As you alluded to, what better way is there to enhance usability than to give people complete access to what you do through an API? This truly enables your users to use what you provide in the way that they want versus the way that you think they want it. Daylife is built around our API, and many other online companies are supporting open development as well.
