I was thinking of an even more simple approach: tag any local mashup with "show-me-on-my-shindig-page" and then that mashup will show up as a gadget in the shindig page.

I guess the challenge is to tell the diff between Paul tagging it with that tag and my tagging it .. just because Paul tags a mashup m1 with that ugly tag I don't want it to show on my page.

We can tell who has applied a tag right? So is it abuse of the tagging model to see who applied the tag and only show the gadget if the person has tagged it themselves? Also, if the tag has been applied by the "system" user then it can show up in everyone's shindig page.

Will that work?

I *love* the idea of using tags to associate gadgets.... very cool. How about a scheme like "gadget-xxxx" where xxxx is the gadget name.

+1 .. how about using a simple tag to select the gadgets to show by default? Then users can tag their stuff too and it'll show up.

We should also include some gadgets from iGoogle and include 'em too (I'm assuming that's possible?).

+1 to all except putting all gadgets in the container at startup - this
could be pretty overwhelming to start off and I'd like to have it more of a self-demo than a random jumble. We could tag a few of the sample services for inclusion at startup so it's a nice clean and somewhat useful default display (e.g. the upgradeChecker). Perhaps we can also write a gadget that
can be used to easily add new mashup gadgets without leaving the page...

 >~ 1. Create the gadget container page for Shindig and store the
artifacts
in the Mashup SVN

~ 2. Add a new build target to the existing build, which will
integrate
the gadget container page and shindig infrastructure to the Mashup
Server.

~ 3. Post an article in OT highlighting the steps involved in
converting
a Mashup Server instance to a Google Gadget Container.
+1

The initial container page will probably retrieve all Mashups from
the
registry and display them as gadgets (/services/mashup-name?gadget).
Also may be we can allow the user to add a new mashup server url (So
that the client can talk to that server and get all the gadgets from
there)

Thanks,
Keith.
A
user can then customize this query, just as one does in the main home
page. This will allow a user to search and store a customized query,
which will display a subset of mashups in the container page.

Thoughts?
