Allposters Web Services via XML is here!

(I posted this at Sitepoint too but I'm posting it here for those who don't frequent SP)


I just got my Allposters email and it has info about their new web services. I've been looking forward to this. They are also offering a $1000 prize to kick it off.

Anyone want to write a tutorial?

Hmmm... looks interesting. Will it be "set and forget" like the Amazon Web Services sites, or will people have to download/update databases, etc..?

Looks like it works like Amazon's with live data being pulled via XML.

I'll have a look at that later, it looks quite interesting.

Yes, but you start out at 25%.

[Peter T Davis]

25% is pretty good too, some of the sales I'm getting at my site www.amavart.com are in the hundreds of dollars. Anyone set up with the XML feed yet?

[Chris]

Yes, its not just 25% on a $8 poster. 25% on a framed art print can be $100.

I haven't used their XML services yet, I just made a site off a datafeed dump.

... my site www.amavart.com ...
Is this from the datafeed dump too, or something else?

Someone interested in doing an allposters xml tutorial? :)

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work the same way as Amazon's :(

I would be really interested in a web services one using seo friendly URLs. Anyone want to write a script? I'd pay for a copy.

[intelliot]

Would you take one in perl?
