Some Techy Stuff

For almost 6 months now i've been making "API" links. Until today I fully understand what they are and what they do...so here is a short rundown for the dummies like me.

API stands for application programming interface. In laments terms they are used to take information from somewhere and bring it somewhere else.

Ex. When you allow an app onto your Facebook page, you allow in an API that takes your information and gives it to the publisher of the app for their consumer database.

Well now that I learned something today I can head off to happy hour feeling accomplished!
