New Category - Games removed!
13 Jan, 2009 | admin
Ok - before the good, first the bad news!
I just removed the "games/sparetime" category off the database for two reasons. First of all the only Mojo in there (HAL) is more like an sound-anoying Animation then a real game. But more important: i want to concentrate on offering non-to-less interactive Mojos as the first aim of the MOJOCAFE should be "to offer" then to "need to interact with".
The second reason, or better with what i have exchanged the removed genre is the good news now!
For the last two days i have been analyzing so called webservice APIs.
Just in short for those who do not know what an API is: webservices offer APIs to allow programmers to gather the information that a website offers so that you can use it the way YOU want it to.
Just a quick example: AMAZON.COM
The Amazon.com API allows you to get ANY information about a product so that you can design a website where people can see the books you read at the moment, but at the same time they see the actual price, votings for that title, a short summary and maybe some user comments like "what others say about this title" of the book.
These informations are snatched from the Amazon database.
What does that now mean for the MOJOCAFE !?
Well, i just finished to 99% the first webservice MOJO. It's from www.upcoming.org and it presents you what kind of events are going on in your area.
I will explain a tutorial on how to use the Mojo with the next entry.
For those who can not wait, simply log inside Mojocafe.net, go to your settings and scroll to to the most right.
The rest should be self explainatory :)
