This week we had 34 new APIs added to our API directory including one to measure political influence in the U.S. There was also an event online community service, web usable font library service, automatic check in to foursquare service, noise pollution monitoring service, usability analytics service, and community site customization service. In addition, we provided more in depth coverage of Stephen Colbert awarding a trophy to an email mashup developer, the recent Portland Hackathon, and a fake call API. Below is more details on each of these new APIs.
