Vertical Search Engines are pouring onto A9.com after they released OpenSearch and I ask myself how this will impact the web. From an application stand point, it’s giving me an API to every single little search engine out there that chooses to do this. Amazon is getting all these sites to build an API to their content. This has exciting potential in building useful applications. But as always, I can see SPAMMERS exploiting these APIs as well. I’ll enjoy the benefits of the former. Nice move A9.
