The Rise of .io Domain Names for APIs
Talk to developers about their cache of great domain names and these days you're likely to find a few Dot IOs in the mix. The ProgrammableWeb directory tracks the growth of this TLD, where the .io stands for Indian Ocean, not input/output. No matter, APIs and other developer-oriented services have made the domain extension popular, with nearly 100 APIs in the directory hosted on .io domains.
Facebook Buys "Most" of File Sharing Service Drop.io, Some APIs to Remain in Place
File sharing service drop.io last week struck a deal with Facebook in which the larger company will acquire "most of drop.io's technology and assets." Founder Sam Lessin, a friend and former schoolmate of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, will go work for Facebook in product management. As of the announcement, users ceased being able to create new "drops" (the service's term for file uploads) for free. Existing premium users will have access to their accounts through December 15th, after which time all accounts will be terminated and all stored content will be deleted. Not all of drop.io's products are being wound-down quite as quickly, and at least some of the developer APIs will be remaining up for longer than the main service.
