Web services and APIs allow large websites like Yahoo to be built and maintained, enable internal innovation through mashups, and allow external developers to build new products and services using publicly available data and functionality. They help address issues like security, scaling, and making changes by separating concerns between interfaces and implementations. Events like d.Construct promote discussion and innovation around emerging technologies like Ajax, APIs, and mobile applications.
