This is cool, NPR is building an API. And here are the details.
Looking forward to the NYT/API.
It’s no news to the web nerds in the audience, but there are all sorts of cool things which can be built when you open up your data. Naturally, I’m very interested in the forthcoming news mash-ups.

i grew up next to _the_ skate ramp in my city (Lincoln, Nebraska), so I got to hang out with all the local punks on a daily basis.
My 13th birthday was the same day that everyone’s skate-punk hero’s at the time, JFA, were playing the soon-to-be infamous Brickyard, that empty shell of a building/former warehouse which was rented out for punk shows for a couple years.
Anyway, Al (singer of the band Baby Hot Line - a band I joined the next year) noted on the flyer that this was bernie’s big birthday bash
mom dropped me off at the show.
I did my first proper stage-dive.
My life was forever changed.
25 years, and one week ago tonight.
