With this XML interface you can integrate our quotes into your project. Advantages:

  • Full control over layout and style.
  • Quotes can be hosted and cached by yourself.
  • Quotes can also be integrated into None-Internet-Projects.

In order to use this XML interface certain conditions depending on the project type must be met:

Internet projects: Per quote you must provide one of three possible links that is contained in the XML response (link to site, author or quote).

Other projects: Please contact us in order to talk about the details. Right now we don't have enough experience with other project types to provide some general rules.
