I am interested in writing a plugin for Apple's iPhoto application to export albums to PhotoShare. Only I'm not sure if I should make it talk to PS through HTTP requests, or through a direct MySQL connection. Going with MySQL would be a bit cleaner to code, but HTTP seems more safe, and would not require the site owner to expose the DB.
Could anyone provide a linky of a tutorial how to submit HTTP requests to automagically submit web forms, preferably in Objective C? I haven't had much luck Googling it. Much thanks for any guidance.
