Introducing The OneRiot Developer Network

9/23/09 - Posted by Carmel Hagen under OneRiot News

Today OneRiot launched OneRiot Developer Network, a new website built specifically for the OneRiot API partner community.

OneRiot Developer Network will serve as a place for third party developer to get started with our popular API, ask questions, connect with the OneRiot API team, and engage with their fellow developers. It will also be a great place to check out the many ways our current partners have integrated realtime information into their sites, social applications, search engines, and data visualizations.

At the helm of ORDN is Robert Reich, co-founder of OneRiot and founder of Add-On-Con, the first and only conference dedicated to browser add-on developers. Robert speaks for everyone at OneRiot when he says the goal of ORDN is to provide developers with the tools, help and guidance they need for creative and successful implementations of the OneRiot realtime search API, and we can’t wait to see what’s in store (the last time Robert stepped in to lead a community, it became the third largest Meetup in the country - so our developers are in good hands).

Alongside OneRiot Developer Network, we’re excited to announce a six great new additions to the OneRiot search partner program. All of these players used the OneRiot API to add some killer features to their sites, apps or search engines - check them out!

Gioo Gioo, a multi-search engine, allows users to search within several leading search engines from one location. Users can search for images, videos, news, shopping, jobs and more, including realtime results by OneRiot.
