This is a list of web APIs we want to start creating nodes for.
For each service there are some thoughts of the types of input/query/output capabilities we might want. Some need further investigation to see what they expose in their API.
Some use HTTP(S) callback for event notification. This will only be possible with a public facing host e.g. bluemix. Some have alternative polling based apis which we can use.
