BOSS Hacks – an unofficial Yahoo! BOSS blog

Netflix, the DVD rental company has announced a new series of APIs that open their catalog to developers. Visit the Netflix Developer Section for more information.

This could be used to augment BOSS search results for sites that explore movies, travel, popular culture, and more. It’s worth noting Netflix’s history of innovative user interfaces and two amazingly talented people they grabbed from Yahoo!: Bill Scott and Kent Brewster. These two will keep the Netflix APIs and hackability interesting.

Kent Brewster gives you more information in his blog post Netflix Catalog API Explorer.
