You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the “My feedback” filter and select “My open ideas”.

    1. /member (no memberId) return info for current member

      Make it so that if /member is called without an explicit memberId, it returns the data for the authenticated user making the request. Without this, one has to use some other method like /rating in order to learn the calling member's memberId.

      • Method to Report Plays and Views

        We need a method such as /reportPlay or /program/123/play that records and/or counts the event that someone has viewed or listened to a program. This is required for non-web clients where these operations are not known to SpokenWord.org.

              • Use OAuth for APIs requiring authentication

                Yup. For now (until something goes wrong or a better solution appears) I'm using the code from http://code.google.com/p/oauth-php/
