Quickest way to get started ?
Hi,
I would like to create a shopping site mashup with Ebay and Amazon API's to teach myself the basics.
I only have an average knowlege of javascript, and php(and XHTML, CSS). Can someone who is experienced tell me what other languages and, protocols I should learn immediately to create a good shopping site mashup? I checked out the essential list of languages in the technical reference of this site and kinnda got overwhelmed by the varieties. I also have read the "How-to Guide" for Ebay and Amazon from this site, but I would like to have a little more information.
I don't mind learning, but I would like to create my mashup as quickly as possible(since I work in the daytime), so I really don't want to learn anything (at this time) that is not necessary for the basics, although I plan to learn them later. I don't want to discourage myself in the beginning by overloading, if you know what I mean
I want to create a (above average)mashup that searches for Ebay, and Amazon (or others) products upon a user query. I would definatey want to include product images for my results. Any suggestions will be greatlyt appreciated.
Thanks!
