Official: Facebook Opens Stream API

Today Facebook will officially announce the opening of their stream API. According to the soon to be published blog post, “In addition to the Activity Streams interface, the Open Stream API includes robust new APIs called stream.get and stream.publish and new FQL tables that enable you to directly access the stream.” The new services leverage the emerging Activity Streams standard.

The post continues, “With these new methods, you can access the stream on behalf of a user and then filter, remix, and display the stream back to that user however you choose, wherever you choose, in the manner most relevant for the user experience.
