What's happening with engineering and developers at YouTube
Developer Highlights: Tower of Babel Roundup
Monday, April 14, 2008
We wanted to take a minute and highlight some developers like yourselves who have been writing helpful tutorials or wrappers for the YouTube Data APIs.
In case you missed the
announcement
, we recently added YouTube support into the
Google Data Objective-C Library
. Not long after,
Dan Sinclair
, wrote a few helpful tutorials about getting started building a YouTube app in
Cocoa
. Check 'em out here:
Part 1: MyTube from the ground up
Part 2: MyTube - Installing the image wall
Part 3: MyTube - now with moving images
For the
ActionScript 3
developers who want help querying and parsing Google Data feeds from Flash,
Martin Legris
wrote a small wrapper and also contributed an
article
to code.google.com on how to use it.
Shane Vitarana
's
Ruby
wrapper
has been updated to handle the Google Data feeds. Read the
short introduction
in his blog.
The
Google Data .NET Client Library
doesn't have YouTube-specific support yet, but
Karsten Januszewski
has written a
sample
and wrapper to help ease the parsing pain in the meantime.
If you've written a cool application, tutorial, or extension using the YouTube APIs, we'd love to see it! Share it with everyone over in the
forum
.
Google I/O
Tuesday, April 1, 2008
Hi everyone,
In case you haven't heard, we're holding our annual developer event,
Google I/O, on May 28-29th.
Google I/O
is a 2 day developer gathering in San Francisco
focused on how to build better web applications.
There are a few YouTube-specific sessions about building custom players, fully integrating YouTube into your site or app, and a codelab using the APIs and Python. The talks will led by Geoff, John, and Jochen respectively (check out the
launch video
to put some names to faces).
See the full list of sessions here:
http://code.google.com/events/io/sessions.html
Jeff, Ryan and I (you may recognize us from the
forum
) will also be there giving talks or helping out. Other Google engineers will be leading sessions and codelabs on a variety of topics, as well as hanging around booths to chat with you guys and answer questions.
You can register here:
https://www.weboom.com/sparks/google_io/forms/
Sign up early (or start
bugging your bosses to send you to the conference :). We hope to see you there!
For those of you can't make it to San Francisco, or are wondering what happened to Google Developer Day from last year, don't despair! We'll also be holding many Developer Days around the world (more info to come later).
Cheers,
Steph
