Re: [Sugar-devel] Social Sugar : GSoC '13
About the profiles, I was thinking about user profiles backed by different services one of which would be the sharing website, other FOSS backends could include identi.ca or diaspora, but I'm not sure about their popularity among kids. Can you think of any other solution popular among kids? The structure can be inspired by Rapportive[1], with each service expanding and giving more details on hover. A large part of the sharing website can have a Sugar UI as well, profiles, galleries, projects but that is possible after the API is ready. We could also, sync all project data on the sharing website privately, with option to make it public later, if one chooses to do so. It would be like a sync service for Sugar. Also, I was initially focusing on UI components related to FB/Twitter because the backends for these services were ready[2]. I can also see a mention about a classroom service there. Could you please elaborate on that, can it be a part of this project?

Ideally, we'd have a FOSS solution rather than Facebook/Twitter, which are not very good for kids. -walter On Thu, May 2, 2013 at 5:31 PM, Akshit Khurana axitkhur...@gmail.comwrote: Hi, Social Sugar project looks really interesting. From what I understand this project would be about integrating external social networks like facebook and twitter with Sugar, right? Some of the features, I am thinking: using connected facebook/twitter account to post about projects made (may be later integration with project sharing website), mini profiles in group views and larger profiles with content from these sites in expanded view. Please suggest tasks that could be part of this project for the summer. I'll be updating the proposal on the wiki[1]. I was working towards Project sharing website[2], but Alexandro(JZA) suggested I could work on this one too.

I like how this could complement the sharing web site project, like walter said it could be interesting if we could try the ideas you mention on a foss back end :) (sharing web site ;)) On May 2, 2013 5:36 PM, Walter Bender walter.ben...@gmail.com wrote: ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
