- People at Metabroadcast have built several projects between 2007-2010 including URIplay and Atlas. They also created the BBC's Social Media Guide in 2008 and Test Tube Telly for 4iP in 2009. - The document discusses IC Tomorrow's APIs for getting content, getting started with authentication, and logging user activity. It provides examples of API endpoints and describes the API's features. - Metabroadcast has already implemented similar functionality for common social APIs and created an IC Tomorrow API helper on GitHub.

16. About the API
• Pretty nice, pragmatically RESTful
• SSL with HTTP basic auth
• XML responses, in a SOAP envelope :(
• Auth flow is OAuth-like, but not quite OAuth
• We’ve been there, and done it already:
• https://github.com/mbst/common-social
• http://metabroadcast.com/blog/ictomorrow-api-helper
