I learned a lot at the open data hackathon last weekend and while I have yet to compile my sources on that (I've been working on a way overdue paper for Rory) this link falls squarely into that domain. The point here is to argue for the need for a thought-out and standardized way to access centralized data services (though the lede for this particular item is buried pretty deeply). Best of all is the eye-candy series of graphical representations of common data services. It's not quite as good as the service that lets me look up the value of my home in real time, but it's close.
