You HOLD IN YOUR HANDS one of the first books devoted solely to creating software
applications that incorporate the eBay Marketplace. By applying the information
in this book, you're joining a community of thousands of software developers who
are taking the promise of distributed Web services and putting them into action to
create and enhance real businesses today.
In this book, Ray Rischpater describes the methods that any software developer
can use to automatically list items for sale on eBay, perform searches of
eBay product listings, and more. The fact that Ray chose both Perl and C# for
code examples illustrates how any language or platform can be used to create
eBay applications. Whatever language or tools you choose, whichever platform
you prefer, our XML-based API makes it easy to create customized eBay functionality
today.
At the end of 2003, the eBay Marketplace comprised more than 94 million
registered users around the world. During the last holiday shopping season, one
out of every three people who were on the Internet came to eBay. Nearly 40 percent
of items listed for sale on eBay.com are listed through the API. In 2004, the
eBay API will service an estimated 10 billion calls from developers. Developers
are using the eBay platform to build solutions that make trading easier for eBay
buyers and sellers. The revolution ofWeb services is real, and eBay is proud to
be part of that revolution.
The opportunities to build a business or accelerate an existing business with
the eBay Marketplace have never been greater. We at eBay love to help developers
who come up with innovative ideas to help users and improve the marketplace,
and there's no better way to do that than creating a new application using the
eBay API. We're looking forward to seeing what you come up with! |
