A company called Yuzoz has released an API that allows you power your widgets and apps with data gleaned from outer space.
Says the site:
Power your games, widgets, web applications or just about any project with Yuzoz's unique live connection to space.
Yuzoz's open API can be easily configured to bring life into a wide range of entertaining projects. There's a crazy world of possibilities. Let astronomical events power everything from games to selecting musical tracks, to finding new friends on social networks all using Yuzoz's Live connection to space.
Apparently the service translates activity from solar flares, northern lights, and shooting stars into data, which is then exposed via an API.
Lilia at Mobile Buzz suggested a horoscope app that selects predictions based on data from the stars.... sounds like a good idea to me.


Hey, and they are one of our local outfits!
