Some of the questions that we hear regularly.

What is API Evangelist?
API Evangelist began as a research project in 2010, attempting to understand what was happening with web APIs. Over the years the blog has continued as the learning research playground for Kin Lane, the API Evangelist, and Chief Evangelist for Postman./

Recently, with a refresh of the blog, others are contributing. Pascal Heus has stepped up to help contributing some valuable thinking and storytelling around the intersection of data, standards, and API. The website runs 100% on GitHub, and anyone is welcome to submit a blog post.
What is an API?
An API is an application programming interface, used to connect online systems together and power web, mobile, device, network, and other types of applications. APIs have been around since the 60s, but the most recent era of web APIs began in 2000 with early pioneers like Salesforce, eBay, and Amazon.
