Google Base API

The Google Base API makes it possible to get items in and out of Base, an index of all kinds of structured and semi-structured data including jobs, vehicles, recipes, events, products, reviews, and others. (You can also create your own custom item type.) The Google Base data API is designed to enable developers to do two things: (1) Query Google Base data to create applications and mashups. (2) Input and manage Google Base items programmatically. The query API makes it possible to search all of Google Base using attribute-based search refinements. For example, Google Base enables you to query for [used white toyota prius near mountain view, ca] by specifying condition, color, make, and other attributes.

Items inserted to Google Base may surface on Google.com. For example, see the query [used toyota] and the vehicles refinement option.
