  • Support for text, photo, video and audio posts
  • Built-in repost feature that allows users to re-publish and share content with one click.
  • Following/Follower model. Users have one-way connections, which means they can follow anyone, regardless if the other person follows back. No friendship approval required.
  • Integration with Yahoo! Query Language (YQL), which provides a simple way to use the Meme API.
  • Compliance with OAuth for transparent and secure access to user data. This means you won’t need to ask for passwords or worry about storing them.

How to start with Yahoo Meme:

Reading:

Reading data from Meme is simpler than writing data because it does not require a developer key or authentication. All information published on Meme is already public on the Meme website.

Writing:

The Meme API allows applications built by developers to do posting, reposting, commenting, following, unfollowing and deleting content on behalf of users.

For security reasons, Meme does not allow the external applications to access usernames and passwords of users. Any developer interested in these features must authenticate users with three-legged OAuth.

Your application uses an API Key to be identified by Yahoo! as an authorized developer. The application then sends the user to a Yahoo! screen where the user authorizes access to private data. Yahoo! then redirects the user to the application, noting that user permission has been granted. The application can then act on behalf of that user.
