New! - Serialized PHP

We're sending out Serialized PHP love via our Yahoo! Web Services. In addition to returning XML, our Travel, Search, and Maps Building Block Web Services now return Serialized PHP. Serialized PHP is PHP data structures encoded as text. It's easily consumed by PHP, and all you have to do is add the output=php parameter to have your web services request return it.

Interesting. Since PHP sucks at soap requests (at least php4), php serialized objects will make accessing yahoo ws w/ php a lot faster now.
