Hi Everyone,
I really think it would be a great idea for the Steemit team to develop an API to allow all of us developers to hook into the data. I have just wrote a post about a new website that I am going to develop that will be an aggregator of STEEM news but also I want to collect and analyse data so the site can display the information in a user friendly way.
Here's the post I wrote this morning - https://steemit.com/steemit/@thebigweb/lets-help-spread-the-word-profits-to-go-to-steem-based-news-website-steemingly-com
Please up-vote this post so it gets some visibility and maybe the developers will add this feature in the future.
What do you guys think?
Why would you like to talk with steemit, when you can talk with steem blockchain directly?

You should look into piston.

And this guide might show you a few helpful things you can do:

Great, thanks for that
