You can also integrate your existing app to retrieve social data from orkut using the REST (http://www.opensocial.org/Technical-Resources/opensocial-spec-v081/ restful-protocol) or RPC (http://www.opensocial.org/Technical-Resources/opensocial-spec- v081/rpc-protocol). Client libraries are also available to help you use the REST and RPC API: http://wiki.opensocial.org/index.php?title=Client_Libraries You should not have to install shindig to run your apps. You can instead sign up for a sandbox account on orkut and test our apps as explained in the following guide: http://code.google.com/apis/orkut/docs/orkutdevguide/orkutdevguide-0.8.html --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Orkut Developer Forum" group.
