Using
Gowalla to find new places is a great idea. What's even better is using the
API to build some fantastic applications with their data. I've greated a simple Library that allows you to use the API from
Gowalla in PHP - hence the name
GowallaPHP. The Library allows to use both Basic Authentication and their new
OAuthentication which in the
future will allow you to check to in different locations via an API.
It's pretty simple to set up - so more information head over to the Google Code project page (
http://code.google.com/p/gowallaphp), and check out some of the
documentation, and
download the source with examples! Make sure you download Version 1.0 which contains the OAuth and Basic Authentication. Version 0.60 contains only Basic.
Now that you have the tools - what will you build with
Gowalla? Let me know! I would love to comprise a list of people using this Library.
If have any questions, improvements, suggestions, comment - hit me up on Twitter at @
gregavola. If you have an issue with the Library - please add it to the
issues list inside of the Google Code project page.
Thank,
