Are you fascinated by Web Services technologies? You have great ideas on how to use and/or mashup services. You would like to share your ideas about Web Services that people might really need? Then participate in our Web Services Ideas Contest and let us know your concept!
We have found thousands of services, but we still think every day about which functionalities would be really needed out there. Help us finding out what you need! Tell us about your favorite Web Service API, no matter if it exists or not and if you found it here on seekda or somewhere else. Just describe what the service should do for you, together with a possible use case benefiting from it.
To participate in seekda's Web Services contest and have a chance to win great prizes, you have to submit your ideas no later than 26th September 2008.
seekda’s Web Services portal provides a direct access to a robust technology platform enabling search for public Web Services, and in the near future a one-stop-shopping marketplace for services offered by providers from all around the world.
With Web Services technologies you enable, convert and enhance your applications to truly Web-based solutions. By using Web Services, you can plug-in and immediately use new components as easily as you already use software libraries today. The only difference in comparison to the traditional programming model is the ability to access functions and exchange messages not only within your local system, but with computer systems from all around the world. Web Services overcome problems of integration, as they were specifically developed to address problems of interoperability between applications.
The seekda Web Services Search Engine helps you to find Web Services based on a catalogue of more than 27,000 service descriptions. Services listed at seekda cover a wide range of functionality. For example, we have identified services that can send messages via fax or sms, validate addresses or allow you to translate some text. To find Web Services just type the keyword or the whole phrase into seekda Web Services Search Engine or alternatively browse Web Services and their providers by several other criteria defined by us.
