An excellent article over at Pulling Your Flickr Feed with jQuery | Web Design Blog: Web Design & Innovation in web standards : Viget Labs ?
The foundation of the examples provided is JSON and jQuery. I already know jQuery so I will have to spend some reading time on this topic:
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a data format that is easy to read and language-independent, meaning you can parse it using any programming language. Both Yahoo! and Google have been offering data from their sites in JSON format for the past couple years. A good example of this is Flickr. Anyone with a Flickr account can access a JSON feed of their photos.
And what better ay to learn than by example – enjoy the article
