Snapvine Launches Social Media API
Voice and viral sharing features available to over 7 million people through the Snapvine Publisher API.
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) April 15, 2008 -- Snapvine, Inc., a leader in enabling voice applications on the web, has introduced the Snapvine Publisher Application Programming Interface (API) (www.snapvine.com/api), allowing publishers to easily add engaging voice and viral sharing features to practically any website. The API, which is publicly available starting today, launches on nine websites including top 10 blog icanhascheezburger.com, and fast growing photo sharing sites My Photo Album and Picture Trail, providing voice and viral sharing features to over 7 million unique visitors per month.
The Snapvine API, now freely available at www.snapvine.com/api, utilizes lightweight JavaScript that can be implemented in a minimal amount of time and gives website owners immediate benefits:
| | - Increased engagement by allowing users to add their voice to any photo or text element, through the mic on their computer or by dialing a telephone number from one of 15 supported countries.
- Viral distribution of content with a 'share' button for users to easily post photos and voice content to MySpace, Facebook, or other web sites.
- Increased site traffic and enhanced SEO (search engine optimization) via a branded link on all shared content that takes users back to the originating website.
- Quick and easy client-side integration with media hosting and bandwidth provided by Snapvine.

"The Snapvine API was easy to integrate and allowed us to effortlessly add a new personalization and social media sharing feature for our customers," said Peter Macnee, MyPhotoAlbum's President and CEO.
The Snapvine Publisher API is built on top of the same robust platform that powers Snapvine's consumer offerings. The Snapvine Voice Player launched in 2007 has over 7 million registered users, and is a top widget on MySpace. Over 400 million audio plays and 20 million calls have been processed through the Snapvine data center.
Snapvine is initially releasing the API with nine launch partners including, icanhascheezburger.com, PictureTrail.com, MyPhotoAlbum.com, Musez.tv, Picture2Life.com, Floago.com.br, Saloneconnection.com, Shelfari.com and Simplebucket.com.
"We are very excited to share our technology and platform in an API that is as easy to use as Google AdSense, and lets website owners offer engaging voice and viral sharing features ." said Joe Heitzeberg, co-founder and CEO of Snapvine. "I'm looking forward to seeing the creative ways our technology will be used."
