The Open Social API was based on the iGoogle gadget specification,  
hence that it also had its _IG_.. (_I Google_) API in the opensocial  
0.5 days. That it still works is purely for compatibility reasons  
(internally _IG_FetchContent is just a wrapper function for  
makeRequest), and you won't find a mention of it anywhere in the open  
social documentation anymore, and it might even all together disappear  
some day.

So definitely go for gadgets.io.makeRequest, thats the official API  
that will always work
