RE: HTTP API - two step communications.
Chuck, look at the URL...you need to enter valid street, city, state, ts (zip) like this:
http://factfinder2.census.gov/rest/addressSearch/search?street=1425%20H%20st&city=Lincoln&state=Nebraska&&_ts=685083759
JSON is an important data interchange format. http://www.json.org/ It is a structured data format usually without meta data (in other words you need to understand what it is). Braces, commas, quotes, brackets and colons are important delimiters. http://rpgnextgen.com/index.php?content=json for a JSON service program or just parse yourself down to the element you are looking for (possibly "column2":"School District, Unified"?). Here is what is returned when you put in the address above:
