Please let us know what you think!
There are some questions and alternative ideas at the bottom of the article and we would really like everyone's input.
Edit: Here are the questions in case the article was too long for some :)
- What are your thoughts on the idea as proposed?
- Is this something you would consider adding in to your application at the right price?
- What is the right price?
- Are you interested in the full on achievement engine or would you prefer an API that just awards badges to users directly?
- Would you benefit from a Rule Engine which could handle complex rules with many conditions? Meaning, rules more complex than just ‘Comment Event occured 5 times, Award Badge’.
- In order to prevent people from spoofing API calls we may expect sites to call our API functions from server side code instead of via a javascript/client library. Is this asking too much? Are you willing to integrate our API at this level?
