Google has announced the launch of photos and videos API. Now developers can access some features of Google via the API. Google has posted a post on its blog, but deleted the post after few minutes of posting. But you can read the post on Google’s cache.
According to Google’s blogpost,”Google+ gives users full control of their information, and we’re starting with read-only access to public albums, photos, and videos. Google also supports Creative Commons licensing, which we expose so developers can easily respect copyrights.”
“Using the new API, developers can get a list of public albums from a Google+ user, and list the photos and videos within each album. Combined with our existing public data and search APIs, I’m hoping to see new services such as a family-focused ‘screen saver’, a new way to crowdsource great images, or a live photo wall for a party,” it added

Blogpost also contains some exmaple code to tell how to use thos APIs.
