This is interesting, there is many other sites that this could be done these days, if there is a mobile app for the site the modern way is for the app to communicate with the server by an API (using the URL and appending functionality to it). Which is nice for the geek as you can use a shell script and curl or a programming language to automate or cut out the bulky web browser and use a lighter viewer. Or you can whip up something that posts your content without all the hassle of a UI if you are rodent adverse.
