(PhysOrg.com) -- Edmodo, the leading education centric social networking site has announced that it is opening its Application Programming Interface (API) to third party developers in a bid to entice more teachers to use the site. Edmodo is a Facebook-like site that is restricted to teachers, parents, students and school districts and is used primarily as an online tool between teachers and their students. It currently has a user base of approximately six million. By opening up their API, Edmodo is hoping to increase that number and to profit from its take on the applications that are created and sold for the platform.
