This is Part II of How Are Companies Using BackType’s API?
Since we launched BackType Connect, we’ve seen a growing demand for our API. We serve millions of requests every single day through our free (limited to 1,000 daily requests) and commercial API. Here are just some of the companies using our API to do interesting things:
Disqus Comments is a comment system that powers hundreds of thousands of sites. They use BackType’s API to retrieve "social reactions" from across the web to display alongside comments.
Kosmix helps people explore the web by topic, presenting a dashboard of relevent videos, photos, news, commentary and more. They use BackType’s API to retrieve relevant commentary.
