I'll admit this might be a little bit of a stretch for this blog's topic area. But, what the heck, it's my blog :-)

Google Apps APIs

So, why mention this web API? I've been using Google's Docs and Spreadsheets web apps quite a bit for the past few months. I've even trying, as an experiment, to write an entire article for publication (on another web site) using Google Docs (it is interesting but I think a client-side word processor or editor is faster, btw). If the web is the new computer, then we need to do things like backup Google Docs and Spreadsheets to the PC or Mac (is that a switch or what?). Right now, it is a pain to download docs and spreadsheets one file at a time. So, I'm hoping that if more people know about the new Google Apps API, we will start to see a support infrastructure emerge to let us deal with the new world web app order.
