I need your help!
I have to write a new Action for Google Assistant. If you ask Google the same question in different hours of the day, Google have to reply with different phrases.
Which is the better way for develop this project?
Thank you very much!

Can a community use google assistant to list a community events calendar? Ok Google what is happening in my community today? or OK Google what is happening at the city park this weekend?
I have seen many links to how to point google assistant to my own personal calendar, but no way to say use google sheet as the data for the communities upcoming events.
The short answer is no.
You cannot just update a spreadsheet and have the Google Assistant give community events based on this change, any more than you can do so and have Google Search give community events directly in response to a search.
Although Google is increasingly scraping websites, particularly AMP enabled websites, for direct answers to questions, this isn't the sort of question that they're currently indexing for. So there is no way to guarantee that the information is currently indexed to answer a question such as this.
However...
You can certainly create an Action using the Actions on Google SDK that can read a spreadsheet to answer community questions. This is the equivalent of your community setting up a website that people would go visit to see the community calendar, and residents could look things up by invoking the "Town of Wherever" Action with a phrase such as "Hey Google, ask Town of Wherever what is happening in the park".
Building such an Action would require you to write a webhook that accepts JSON from the Assistant, lookup the information you want using the Sheets API or something similar, and then returning JSON with the response.
I am exploring uber api and i need to found out if such an application can develop which can share rider's revenue with the integrated app on each trip .
No, it is not possible. Check out our affiliate program for more details about earning with the Uber API.
Right, I'm a little confused by the wording of "integrated app", but I'll just link the API endpoints you should take a look at to see if they satisfy what you need for developing your own application. If this isn't helpful, just say so and I or someone else will try and help further.
If you want to look at riders, the best way I can think of is to use the history to get a list of user recent rides and then request a receipt for every request_id in the history.
If you want to look at drivers, you can just look at all earnings that are given to a specific driver.
If someone wants to correct me on better ways to do this, feel free.

I have some work I need completed on the bluemix platform and need contractors to complete it? I will have a constant flow flow of work. Any advice/recommendations greatly appreciated.
Look on StackOverflow careers!!!

I am about to start a new project in the Google Analytics API & PHP.
I read that Google Analytics will be deprecating XML v2.3 and v2.4 and in 6 months time, so aparently you will only be able to use v3 and retrieve information in JSON format.

My question is the following: Does this means that GAPI class won't work any longer? Anyone who has used this class before can help me answering this question ??
http://code.google.com/p/google-api-php-client/
In that case, any alternative suggestions of PHP classes that do the same thing.
Thanks so much
I've been using GAPI for a while now. And I can say with some confidence that yes it will break, if not due to XML it will be due to some other change google makes.
Having said that GAPI is the best solution I have found out there for php. It does break every 6 months to a year, usually needs one or two lines changing to fix. But GAPI is pretty popular so at least you know when your clients are calling saying analytics is throwing errors at them, you wont be the only dev tearing your hair out.
9 times out of 10, by the time I've got a problem someone else has found the fix - which is nice.
There are a few other php options out there but GAPI seems to be the most popular (usually the best way to go imho)
My approach is to build an analytics summary in the dashboard and provide a link to google analytics underneath so clients can see the full data or go there when GAPI breaks. I have been putting all my sites on the same modular system for a while now. I keep GAPI as a library in my admin layout module, this means I can make the fix once and roll it out to all my sites without too much drama.
In summary, use it but expect it to break - that way you wont be disappointed when it does.
I am planning to add weather report for selected country->state->city, for daily, weekly, monthly averages. I have googled it and also went through couple of discussion on stackoverflow threads and I got confused! Could anyone please tell me if there is already Weather report APIs library available? What could be the best way to implement my requirements? I am just expecting overview so that I don't chose wrong path.
Thanks.
See WorldWeatherOnline.
I compiled a set of information about different weather APIs looking for a similar solution. My general consensus was the WorldWeatherOnline seemed to be the best bang for the buck (free) and seemed pretty feature rich.
