Announcement: Flickr now supports JSON and serialized PHP   Message List  
Reply Message #2342 of 7623 |
hi all,

we've just released support for all methods to optionally return JSON
or serialized PHP responses. the documentation can be found here:

http://www.flickr.com/services/api/response.json.html
http://www.flickr.com/services/api/response.php.html

if you find any problems, we'd love to hear about them (and fix them)
as soon as possible. if you can think of any other output formats
you'd find useful then feel free to suggest them and we'll see what we
can do :)

hopefully we'll be seeing a lot of you at tomorrow's Yahoo! Open Hack
Day, hacking on the flickr APIs:
