This site started as a research blog around the business of APIs in 2010. With the explosion in the demand for APIs it has become much more.
It is a repository for my real-time industry research around the business of APIs, as well as where I tell stories from the trenches managing API communities.

My goal with this site is to document my the research and strategy around the "Business of APIs".
If you have an API or are considering deploy an API at your company, feel free to reach out and let me know more about what your thinking.
Sometimes just talking with someone familiar with the industry can help make sense of it all, find the right strategy, service providers or tools to make your aPI initiative successful.
