Connotea Developer Tools

We've just released NPG's first public web service for developers — the Connotea Web API.

Connotea is our web-based social bookmarking and reference management service. The release of the Web API now allows any developer to create an application or web site that interacts with Connotea's database of references and links.

For those of you who are programmers, we've also released some Perl and Ruby libraries to allow you to get started quickly.

If you want explore what's possible with the Web API in more depth, have a look at the documentation on the Connotea Community Pages, or get in touch with us on connotea@nature.com or via the connotea-code-devel mailing list.
