APIs Data Feeds Mobile Content Web Services API Transports API Abuse Authentication The FutureIndex Review "What this book gives, possibly uniquely, is both a look at the whole spectrum of building a service and some details of all the major stages. Its ideal to give to someone who has a tight focus or experience on a particular area, e.g. writing lines and lines of PHP code which kills the database or filer because the author has little appreciation of what happens at other levels of the system structure. This book would make an ideal guide to people who need to be given some indications of the world beyond a small area. Its also a good read for those who build web sites which may potentially get a large volume of traffic to learn from flickr and why they made the decisions they made." - Sam Smith, news@UK, September 2006 Long Description Slow websites infuriate users.
