Google Releases AdWords API v2009 (Beta)
Jun 30, 2009 at 9:55am ET by Barry Schwartz
The Google AdWords API Blog announced the new AdWords API v2009. The new API promises "more speed, scale, and flexibility to developers, at a lower cost."

Partial failure acceptance - We plan to support partial failures, which means that large posts won't be completely rolled back due to a few small errors. This allows you to keep moving forward with development without halting to re-do posts.
Asynchronous calls - We’ll offer asynchronous ca [...]
