It's taken a little longer than we'd hope, but we've made a small tweak to the explorer that we hope will be of great use to everyone.

Now, rather than having to type in your API Key, you can select an API key from a dropdown as shown in the dropdown bellow:

Hopefully this will save you some keypresses and flipping between screens.

Please continue to provide feedback through the forum, we give all suggestions serioius consideration :)

There's been a lot of buzz around our latest addition to the API family :-). Here is an article by paidContent about our Kitchen Manager dataset. 

We have added the Pearson Kitchen Manager, a collection of recipes, to our library of APIs, which Diana announced at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona last week. 

Here is an article Tim Green, Editor of Mobile Entertainment, wrote about our recipe API.

 

The Event

We jumped at the offer when Shanley and Jeremy from Apigee invited us to their hackathon at the Guardian's offices on Saturday the 18th of Feb. We had a great time and saw lots of teams using our APIs for various and quite different purposes. It's always a pleasant and sometimes amusing surprise to see what people can do with the content we've release.
