keith’s new self

Greatly appreciate the wsfinder blog, which tracks new webservice APIs that are popping up all over the web. Web 2.0 needs more community portals - this site helps to fill that gap. Here are some cool new webservice APIs that have popped up:

geocoder.ca - find the lattitude and longitude of any Canadian address (Google maps hack).

colr.org - generate color schemes from an image.

ip2location.com - map IP address to location. Another GeoIP service. It says I am in Montreal, so I guess it’s not that accurate. Probably works better for smaller locallized networks.

Zimbra - AJAX-based collaboration suite

And, of course, sxore.com, which had it’s first “officially-sanctioned” alpha go live last night.
