Ask HN: What are some interesting open APIs out there?

FRED

It's an economics and financial data service from the Federal Reserve that has heaps of indicators. They aggregate data from many other sources (IMF, World Bank, etc.) so it's the closest thing to a one-stop service for economic data. It's biased toward macro / government data though, so you won't have high-frequency private market data there.
