OpenSocial Specification: What's Next for OpenSocial
David Glazer (Google)
OpenSocial is an open specification established by a group of social sites and application developers. While OpenSocial version 0.7 is being rolled out on several large social networking sites, the specification is evolving to include more features useful to social application developers.
This session will cover the most interesting features that are discussed in the specification working group to be included in the next versions of OpenSocial, like an OpenSocial template language, and the OpenSocial RESTful API. -

Google I/O 2008 - Best Practices for Spreading Your App
by GoogleDevelopers 7,065 views
Best Practices for Spreading Your App without Ruining the User Experience
Vivian Li, Chris Schalk and Kevin Marks (Google)
The OpenSocial API provides features that application developers can use to help their users share the application with their friends. We'll review other social application architectures that allow apps to spread virally. We'll then discuss the sharing features in OpenSocial in detail including a review of requestSentMessage and requestShareApp. We'll also go over programmatic best practices for such things as determining if an app is already installed, and we'll look at example apps that have successfully used these features. -

Building on the Promise of OpenSocial
Jeremiah Robison (Slide)
The goal of OpenSocial is to provide a framework for developers to build their applications once and run them in multiple social networks. To do this effectively, you need to architect your system to properly segment data and accommodate differences in networks, all while still maintaining a common code base. How do you scale this architecture out to multiple applications? Jeremiah Robison, CTO of Slide, will outline best practices for delivering multiple applications on multiple OpenSocial containers. -

Google I/O 2008 - OpenSocial Across Containers
by GoogleDevelopers 2,163 views
OpenSocial Across Containers
Arne Roomann-Kirruk and Lane LiaBraaten (Google)
OpenSocial provides a common set of APIs that developers can learn in order to create applications that run on multiple social sites. However, since social sites vary widely in functionality, OpenSocial provides ways to extend the core APIs so containers can implement site-specific functionality.
This session will cover best practices for how to extend the OpenSocial API for your container, as well as how to write applications that will run on multiple OpenSocial sites. -

Google I/O 2008 - Apache Shindig
by GoogleDevelopers 12,682 views
Apache Shindig: Make your Social Site an OpenSocial Container
Dan Peterson (Google), Paul Lindner (hi5) and Chris Chabot (mijndomein.nl)
Shindig is a new project in the Apache Software Foundation incubator and is an open source implementation of the OpenSocial specification and gadgets specification in multiple programming languages. The goal of Shindig is to make it easy for social sites to extend their functionality using the OpenSocial API, which makes it easier for developers to write to write those extensions.
This session will explain what Shindig is, the server's architecture, the JavaScript and Java Service Provider Interfaces that developers can leverage to integrate Shindig with their social site, and the state of the Shindig ports to other languages (PHP, .NET, Ruby). We will do a live demonstration of how to integrate Shindig with an existing social site. -

Google I/O 2008 - OpenSocial: A Standard for the Social Web

OpenSocial: A Standard for the Social Web
Patrick Chanezon, Kevin Marks, Chris Schalk (Google)
OpenSocial is an open specification defining a common API that works on many different social websites, including MySpace, Plaxo, Hi5, Ning, orkut, Salesforce.com and LinkedIn, among others. This allows developers to learn one API, then write a social application for any of those sites: Learn once, write anywhere.
In addition, in order to make it easier for developers of social sites to implement the API and make their site an OpenSocial container, the Apache project Shindig provides reference implementations for OpenSocial containers in several languages (Java, PHP). Shindig will define a language specific Service Provider Interface (SPI) that a social site can implement to connect Shindig to People, Persistence and Activities backend services for the social site. Shindig will then expose these services as OpenSocial Javascript and REST APIs.
In this session we will explain what OpenSocial is, show examples of OpenSocial containers and applications, demonstrate how to create an OpenSocial application, and explain how to leverage Apache Shindig in order to implement an OpenSocial container.
