<blockquote>[[wp:JSON|JSON]] (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language.</blockquote> - http://json.org/

JSON is pretty ubiquitous these days in web programming. An example is the [[JIRA]] bug tracker from Atlassian software which exposes it's data via API calls in JSON format. When working with large JSON data sets, it's helpful to have a viewer like http://jsonviewer.stack.hu/ which easily parses and renders the object in a tree fashion.
