li style= »margin-bottom:0.5em »bSimplified response format/b – Your application doesn’t need to know the difference between users and groups, how « friend of friend » works, or deal with hidden entries until you want to. We provide the HTML for representing entries so you don’t have to construct it. Authenticated responses include a list of possible commands on every feed, entry, and comment so you don’t have to do the detective work./li
