I’m trying develop some app related to the Olympic Games.
Does anybody know how get info from the page http://www.london2012.com, like google does in results?
Does an API exist? Where can I find an API?
I’d suppose, maybe it could be done with a url like:
(This isn’t real, just what I suppose an API might look like)
When I search “london olympics” for example, I see a “gadget” which shows some results, and I believe that these come from http://www.london2012.com. Does anyone know if that’s true?
I’m not sure which programming language you are using, making it hard to provide an appropriate answer. I doubt http://www.london2012.com has produced an API just for access, so you will need to make queries (like you said in your post). For example, if you are using Python, you can use the urllib module to write your requests.
However, be warned. I just read over the http://www.london2012.com Terms of Service (http://www.london2012.com/terms-of-use/) , and you may not use this information for non-personal use.
