OLD Bamboo Blog: APICache

    This looks sweet. I take it this could be used for APIs other than Twitter such as Flickr?

    Alistair: Oh yes of course. There's absolutely nothing Twitter specific in the library.

    A similar (& useful) ruby library is;

    Hi Dan. Thanks for the pointer to feedtools. It's actually exactly the kind of library that could simplify its internals by using api_cache to handle the caching. As it is, the caching code is less robust than api_cache and its implementation is sprinkled inside an already vast feed class. I'll stick to api_cache and a few lines of Hpricot for my simple requirements :)
