Hi Justin, # the best way to check if a person is owner is to use the person.isOwner() method, rather than getting there id's and comparing them. # to check for friends there is no way now other than iterating through all friends, v0.8 will bring some solution this and also for friends of friends.. take a look at these threads for the accepted proposal- http://groups.google.com/group/opensocial-and-gadgets-spec/browse_thread/thread/95570a27ab945f6d/65d409d017107cfb , http://groups.google.com/group/opensocial-and-gadgets-spec/browse_thread/thread/6b2ba00f8a38cb45/4374c5e1e22eaacf Thanks ~@@[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://aakash-bapna.blogspot.com
