Tips From the Team
September 19th, 2008 | Published in Youtube API
Posted by Stephanie Liu, YouTube APIs and Tools Team
As you guys know, many members of the team hang out in our discussion forum, where we field all kinds of questions, usually resulting in small snippets of code that aren't easy for other people to find. To house these snippets, a Tips Blog was created! For example, Jochen has a few tips on how to get the next and prev links using SimpleXML, how to use the PHP Client Library through a proxy, and adding multiple video responses.
The blog is actually for all the Google Data APIs, but many tips are general and relate to YouTube. You can also subscribe only to tags that you're interested in. Blogger (since it's a Google Data API, naturally) allows you to use the category filter and throw it into your feed reader of choice. For example, to get all tips for YouTube, use:
http://gdatatips.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default/-/youtube
If you only want PHP tips for YouTube, you can further filter the labels:
http://gdatatips.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default/-/youtube/php
Or, of course, you can subscribe to the whole thing by just using the base feed:
http://gdatatips.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default/
Happy coding!
