Announcing the Slicehost API

The Slicehost API is an interface to Slicehost services, allowing users to automate tasks as needed. Please note that the current iteration allows access to DNS only. This will change in the future as we add access to more services.

To use the API, you must have a Slicehost account. You may enable or disable API access from this account, and you may re-generate your API password as you see fit. You can find this option in the SliceManager on the API page under the Accounts tab. This API follows a standard ActiveResource pattern as seen in Ruby on Rails.
