Panelists and presenters at last week’s Open Government West 2011 conference in Portland, Oregon tackled the topic of government sponsored app contests. Attendees asserted that not all app contests are designed the same way and there are different benefits and drawbacks with each kind. An overarching issue seemed to be the value returned to the public on government investment in app contests. Governments are looking for the best way to offer services to the public in the face of budget cuts and are eyeing citizen generated apps.
In addition to the the new APIs we highlighted earlier this week, there are plenty of other new entries in our API directory. Some other notable new APIs include a location based advertising API from Placecast, an open platform for data sharing from Socrata, and a new service from Sony Ericsson for music identification and music chart access.
