Launch Of Google+ Photo & Video APIs Imminent (But Theyll Be Read-Only, For Now)
Based on official blog posts that were apparently posted early (and then pulled), developers will soon be able to access some key features of Google+ via the service's API: photos and videos.Google announced the news on both the Google+ platform blog and its Photos blog, only to take the posts down shortly thereafter but not before they were copied by Google's cache, syndicated to Twitter, and spotted by TC reporter Robin Wauters. You can find a cached version of the blog post here, and I've included an image below.According to the pulled blog post, this initial API will only give developers read-access to users' contentthird-party apps will not be able to upload new photos and videos yet. But it's still an important step photos and video are crucial to any social network (Facebook is the world's largest photo site by a huge margin, for example).Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/qVPy81U0Vyk/
