Steemit.com should develop an API.

<p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p>I really think it would be a great idea for the Steemit team to develop an API to allow all of us developers to hook into the data. I have just wrote a post about a new website that I am going to develop that will be an aggregator of STEEM news but also I want to collect and analyse data so the site can display the information in a user friendly way.</p>
<p>Here's the post I wrote this morning - <a href="https://steemit.com/steemit/@thebigweb/lets-help-spread-the-word-profits-to-go-to-steem-based-news-website-steemingly-com">https://steemit.com/steemit/@thebigweb/lets-help-spread-the-word-profits-to-go-to-steem-based-news-website-steemingly-com</a></p>
<p>Please up-vote this post so it gets some visibility and maybe the developers will add this feature in the future.</p>
<p>What do you guys think?</p>

👍 thebigweb, erotic

You should look into piston.

And this guide might show you a few helpful things you can do:

Why would you like to talk with steemit, when you can talk with steem blockchain directly?
