Paul gave me access to mojo at the end of last week, and since Norm Walsh is blogging about it, I assume I can too…
As one of the 20th Century telecoms monopolies, it’s good to see BT trying to adapt, and fun to imagine the battles Paul must have had to be allowed to expose call management function on the internet over a non ‘enterprise’ transport. etc, etc. I had programmatic access to an SMS gateway a few years ago when working on Extreme Blue, so I’ve thought of some of the possibilities before, but the RESTful HTTP api changes lots and I’m really looking forward to trying to integrate this with my current side project. I also see a facebook app coming on… I sort of ignored the Web21C stuff when it was first launched because it was (I think) .Net only, but now there’s Java APIs and Mojo so I’ll be taking a much closer look.
Ha! I should have told you it’s ok to talk about Mojo, guess I should blog about it too! Actually for a Web services guru like yourself might be interested in some documentation we threw up (pun intended) on calling the SDK services directly: http://web21c.bt.com/howtos/diy_web_service_calls. You can now see why REST will win
Hmm Paul, sounds like a challenge! I’ll try to find the time to try out both and let you know how it goes. (Though I’m sure you’re right that the REST form is simpler).
