From its official web site:
Friends are fun, but they're only on some websites. OpenSocial helps these sites share their social data with the web. Applications that use the OpenSocial APIs can be embedded within a social network itself, or access a site's social data from anywhere on the web.
OpenSocial is the platform that MySpace,
Orkut, Ning,
LinkedIn, Hi5, and pretty
much every social network but Facebook supports for creating games and other applications
that run on these social network sites.
In this talk, we focus on the MySpace platform and how one builds a MySpace application. This involves interacting with the OpenSocial JavaScript as well as receiving and sending OpenSocial requests on your own servers.
Scott Seely is a Senior Technical Architect at
SAVO Group in Chicago, IL, one of the founders of the
Lake County .NET Users’ Group, and one of the partners in
Tech in the Middle.
He worked at MySpace during the development of OpenSocial 0.8.1 through OpenSocial 0.9, acting as the editor and specification shepherd for version 0.9 of OpenSocial.
In 2009, Scott helped write Effective REST Services via .NET (2009). He lives in northern Illinois with his wife, three children, and two dogs.
Please register with your real first and last names because you'll need to identify yourself at the Sears Tower front desk. The front desk will have the list of attendees. If you can't register in time, show up anyway and call Sergio (224-627-8352) when you get to the front desk and we will let you in. We meet on the 7th floor, room 750. Ignore the front desk if they tell you otherwise.
