"AwAPI uses a straightforward web-based protocol to receive requests and return data. Known as REST, it allows anyone to request feed traffic data using URLs submitted via HTTP. The data is returned as plain text XML which can be repurposed, transformed, and displayed by applications that you build. Using XML as the output format means testing and exploring AwAPI is as simple as composing an AwAPI URL and then requesting it with a web browser."

"Internet journalism received a leap in recognition Wednesday as the Pulitzer Prize Board widened its submission guidelines to include online material for all of its journalism categories."You've still gotta write for a newspaper though:
"'The board believes it has taken a significant step in recognition of the widening role of online journalism at newspapers,' prize administrator Sig Gissler said in a statement. Online material will be considered beginning with the 2006 competition (which honours work done in 2005)."
"The eligibility guidelines 'will continue to be restricted to newspapers published daily, Sunday or at least once a week during the calendar year,' Gissler added, but will be widened to included the online editions of those newspapers."
