OpenSocial – Google Code
Posted in random, security on 11/02/2007 10:00 am by novakyuThe web is more interesting when you can build apps that easily interact with your friends and colleagues. But with the trend towards more social applications also comes a growing list of site-specific APIs that developers must learn.
OpenSocial provides a common set of APIs for social applications across multiple websites. With standard JavaScript and HTML, developers can create apps that access a social network’s friends and update feeds.
“Better when it’s social”, my arse. I like my lone website JUST FINE, thank you. The only things I can possibly see benefiting from being connected with others are wikis.
Really, I hate it when it’s so easy for people to reach me. It makes it that much harder to tell who are my true friends.
