A look at the current stage of APIs in the context of their past. From Salesforce and eBay in the early days to map mashup hysteria to Twitter's perceived change of heart. There are more APIs than ever now, but the approach is fundamentally different than periods in the past. What does this mean for developers, providers and integrators?
