Hi, I am wondering how the impending abandoning of iGoogle is perceived in the Enterprise community, and where you see the Gadget Server going once that happens. We currently have an enterprise portal, which can accommodate DIV-based same domain widgets (following a homegrown data contract), as well as Google/ OpenSocial gadgets using Shindig behind the scenes to render the gadgets. The goal in supporting the Gadgets was to adhere to an industry standard, while allowing the users to put useful gadgets they see on iGoogle on their portal pages. With Google abandoning the major source of gadgets (iGoogle), we are questioning the need to support the Gadgets in the light of significant advancements in Web2.0 / HTML5, especially cross-document messaging, the ability to support cross-domain requests, the growth of REST services, etc. Can the community please share your opinions about the trends, and the role that the Google / OpenSocial Gadget spec can play as a unifying platform in this new world.
