I've got the same question. If I could restate the goal as I understand it in general terms:
1) we've got a large back-end app, to which we'd like to drive viewers. This benefits both ourselves and the containers. 2) so we write a widget to run within a container like LinkedIn, AND / OR 3) we make use of container functionality within our back-end app. #3 gives some nice abilities to users once they get to our app, so the question remains how to get them there. #2 is essentially advertising a link to your back-end app. So how do the containers choose what widgets out of thousands are displayed? Am I missing the point entirely?
