Question

How do I read this like VIEW SOURCE, so that I know what I'm looking at? Is there a website that can prettify it for me?

BTW, I use python

Answer 1

Parse it, then use pprint:

data = json.load(...)
pprint.pprint(data)

Answer 2

Insert a carriage return after every comma with your favorite search and replace utility. If you know Python then you shouldn't have any trouble getting it even prettier than that.

Answer 3

You can also use something like http://hurl.it.

Answer 4

Personally, I use JSONView for Firefox, which does a good job formatting and colour-highlighting JSON.
