Hi all,
Some people may recognize me by name, since I occasionally posting messages to spec-list and contributing codes to shindig. It've been almost one year since i first met shindig. But today, I'm happy to announce the release of yet another OpenSocial container "goo Home". "goo Home" is existing SNS represents one of the biggest japanese portal site "goo". This release is sandbox only beta. Developers are required to register to view it working. We've implemented broad range of support for OpenSocial spec: * home / profile / canvas view * privacy control over person attributes. (not returning attributes when set as as private by user) * activity stream which supports both addition from gadgets and feed from external services * requestCreateActivity(asks permission when priority is high and not granted) - supporting MediaItem * requestPermission (works when gadget is not owned by viewer) * requestShareApp * requestSendMessage * DataRequest for - AppData - People/Person - Activity etc. Sorry but no REST for this time. Since we are an open SNS, when we launch production environment, which will hopefully be in one month, the container will be public and profile page with gadgets will be revealed to the web. Even if you're not registered or signed in, you can view gadgets. I'm sorry that all documents and UI is written only in japanese. But in case you have japanese colleague, please ask them to read. http://developer.home.goo.ne.jp/document/ Finally, we've implemented OpenSocial using PHP Shindig. I would like to thank all the people who are involved in developing it, especially Chris Chabot, who spent so much time, took massive effort on shindig. Of course, I would like to send big thank you to all the Java version developers too, since PHP version wouldn't have existed without it. Regards, Eiji
