Comments
Don’t forget to roll your own API, so that others can build competing interfaces…
Well, not interfaces that compete necessarily, but interfaces that use the data in your database to combine with other services to produce other amazing things.
Sharing information is good. Locking it up is bad.
ABOUT
Bokardo is a blog about interface design for social web sites and applications. I write about recommendation systems, identity, ratings, privacy, comments, profiles, tags, reputation, sharing, as well as the social psychology underlying our motivation to use (or not use) these things. If this sounds interesting to you, grab my RSS Feed. If you want to know more about me, check out my about page.
