Hi! You are really using an old version of the api. You should be using 3legged oauth instead of 2legged in order to have something similar you have on Facebook.
So, in this sense, take a look here: php library (which i developed): http://code.google.com/p/orkut-os-client-php java library ( developed by google ): http://code.google.com/p/orkut-os-client There is also a working (test) code I created, which is inside the library too. If you wanna take a look, just follow here: http://www.dxs.com.br/os-3leg/test/ Best Robson Dantas @robsondantas 2011/3/16 Johnny Bergström <johnny.bergst...@duego.com> > Coming from facebook connect, I find the documentation for talking to > the orkut opensocial api confusing. > > I would like to be able to read the profile settings like name, > gender, birthdate etc and have this in my external webpage. > I'm trying to use an example equivalent to > > http://code.google.com/p/opensocial-php-client/wiki/HowToConnecting#2-legged_OAuth_on_orkut > > I've created an application xml and got the OAuth params. > How do I actually add this application to the user?
