I am a complete noob to geograph.org.uk but I have been doing some cgi
scripting with gigapan.org. The api there uses the JSON format which
works well for me. If you don't know it, all it does is encode a hash
as a string. Simple and effective.

Nothing specific. I guess I saw that the API/feeds deliver results in
a variety of formats and as a programmer I prefer JSON because I can
slurp a JSON string directly into a hash. I'm sure one can do that
with XML too but I am too lazy to find out how to do it :-) Actually
I'd like a zipped/LZW JSON string but again that should be no problem
if were to RTFM.
I am still finding out about the geomapping/geocoding resources. There
seems to be a lot out there. I'm glad to have found geograph - it
seems to be a good starting point.
