See Scoble's interview with Sforce's very own Adam Gross (via Salesforcewatch) (yeah, I know, its not sforce anymore, but after a while all the branding changes just become a blur)
API traffic now over 50% of all traffic. (The rate of change here is more interesting than the actual number, as I'm sure the heretic will be quick to point out a number of reasons why API traffic might be higher than it could be). (via Charlie Wood)
Winter '07 will be live RSN, if you were at Dreamforce I'm sure you know that this is probably the biggest API release ever, there's a ton of new features, the combination of SOQL-R, Outbound Messaging and Upsert-R should put something of a dent in the heretics arguments on API traffic. (again, via Salesforcewatch)

update: here's a couple more.

Most if not all of the Dreamforce presentations are available for viewing on the Salesforce blog, including the insanely packed session that Adam Gross, Craig W and I did on the Apex language and runtime. (ignore all the blurb around it, its wrong). Unfortunately my compelling explanation of why query/queryMore is a good idea is on the cutting room floor. (You want all the data? you want all the data? you can't handle all the data!).
Some people using .NET 2.0 have been plagued with de-serialization errors relating to xsd:dateTimes, there's details on the developer forums about a fix from Microsoft to address this issue.
