Hi Sean. You should be able to use an object inspection tool such as
Firebug to see the properties of the returned objects.
CURRENT_LOCATION objects include several fields including country,
locality, and region. GENDER objects, meanwhile, have a displayValue
property which contains 'male' or 'female.' However, requests for the
DATE_OF_BIRTH field return null objects since orkut does not currently
expose this information through the OpenSocial API.
I hope this helps you.
Cheers!
