Reviewing the Plazes APIs | novemberborn.net
[Novemberborn] The plazes.buddies method could return the same information and drop the vicinity, as this can be derived from the distance. In fact, since the Launcher API requires a special API key, this is what’s done in the Ruby implementation already.
