This morning's musings are all about this area. I'm getting the impression that this whole OpenSocial project is going to have the side effect of giving another push to Atom, AtomPub, oAuth and OpenID. To the point where anybody who is anybody building a website with social network elements will have to support them all. Us early developers are going to be struggling a bit because oAuth support in PHP is not yet mature. After all the ink is barely dry on the spec. And even OpenID is not in PEAR yet although the JanRain library seems to be fairly stable. I wonder when Twitter will support oAuth as well as HTTP Auth. And AtomPub as well as their proprietary API. -- Julian Bond E&MSN: julian_bond at voidstar.com M: +44 (0)77 5907 2173 Webmaster: http://www.ecademy.com/ T: +44 (0)192 0412 433 Personal WebLog: http://www.voidstar.com/ skype:julian.bond?chat *** Just Say No To DRM *** --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "OpenSocial Container Developers" group.
