Yahoo! have just launched the Yahoo! Shopping API, a new product that enables Web site owners and software developers to use Yahoo! comparison shopping data in their sites and applications.

Using the Shopping API, developers can create applications that search the Yahoo! database of millions of products and thousands of merchants, displaying prices and enabling searches in new and innovative ways.

To get started you need to get an application ID, then download the SDK. Samples are not yet available so stay tuned

    By this Yahoo! is playing into Amazon’s turf. It remains to be seen if bloggers jump aboard and start using Yahoo!’s web services instead of Amazon’s.
