YouTube?s Biggest Overhaul Of Its Data API Yet Adds Universal Search, Efficiency, And Lets 3rd Party Tools Post To Subscribers

YouTube first launched its Data API back in 2007, and it has since become the video giant's most popular API in terms of request volume. Today, YouTube announced that it has officially opened version 3.0 of its API to all developers. The new APIs bring a number of important changes to bear on its current feature set, including client library support, improved tooling, reference documentation and integration with Google's API infrastructure. It's also now officially using JSON instead of XML encoding for, as YouTube says, "greater efficiency" and now only returns what you ask for.
