Besides last week’s big API news of the Google AJAX Feeds API and then the Digg API, other notable APIs have been recently added to our API directory including:

• Twittervision: The folks behind the very popular Twittervision mashup that maps twitterers, now has its own API: “We wanted to publish easy ways for people to work with the location-based information available through Twittervision and Twittermap.” The straightforward API has methods for getting the current location and status of a user as well as the ability to update your current location. Note that this is another example of an “API stack”, that is, an API on an API, a topic we’ll cover more in a later post.
• NetDocuments: This established SaaS vendor of document management and collaboration services offers their own SOAP-based API for enterprise application integration.
