Phew! That's surely a lot of questions to be answered on the mailing list. I think you are getting boggled up because of way tooo many resources on your table. :) So instead of answering them, I'll just provide some pointers:
1. I am told my presentation is be a good start. ;) Very short, very high level: http://www.slideshare.net/bipin/phpcampshindig-an-opensocial-container-presentation/ 2. A bit deeper dig by Chris Schalk: http://developers.sun.com/learning/javaoneonline/2008/pdf/TS-6574.pdf?cid=925742 [Warning: PDF] 3. Article on Shindig by Chris Schalk: http://chrisschalk.com/shindig_docs/io/shindig-io.html 4. Some great articles by Rajdeep Dua (although the Shindig Architecture once are not very necessary initially, yet it'd great if you can spend sometime on them later): http://sites.google.com/site/opensocialarticles/ Finally: 1. Please understand that Shindig is a moving target and does not have a stable version yet. So a few things in the above articles/presentations may not hold true. 2. Join the Shindig mailing list. There's absolutely no substitute for that. :) 3. There's no substitute for hard work either. Happy reading. ;) HTH, Bipin Upadhyay. -- I'd love to change the world, but they won't gimme the source code. http://projectbee.org/ On Wed, Oct 22, 2008 at 6:50 PM, Praveen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi All, > > I am a newbie to OpenSocial. > We need to implement the OpenSocial API in our website. > I have gone through the OpenSocial v0.8 specifications and a bit with > shindig. > I am totally confused.
