Google launches JavaScript API that allows you to write back
The GData team released a GData JavaScript Client Library that allows users to access feeds that require authentication. Users can also write and update data in feeds. The first service that supports the new features is Google Calendar.
"The consequence of today`s release is basically that you can create an application without any server-side component involved, not even proxy sever and post it anywhere," commented Jun Yang, an engineer from Google Data APIs Team.
GData JavaScript Client Library is a full client library, with support for authenticated access to
private data and read-write capabilities. GData team considers its release a leap to the client-side, supporting the most widely deployed language runtime, JavaScript. Before Google APIs for JavaScript developers only supported read-only access to publicly accessible data through JSON output.
Here you can see a short interview with Jun Yang talking about the new library and its capabilities.
