How are you all ?
I read the following in the OpenSocial section on Google Code

> To host OpenSocial apps, your website must implement the OpenSocial API
> Specification <http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial/docs/spec.html>. In
> most cases, this means that you *connect your own social network's
> backends to the OpenSocial Service Provider Interface (SPI), which is part
> of Shindig <http://incubator.apache.org/shindig/>, to allow an OpenSocial
> app to access your site's data.* However, it is possible to use data from
> another social network as well, should you prefer. The SPI implements:
>
>    - Adding and removing friends
>    - Adding and removing apps
>    - Storing activities
>    - Retrieving activity streams for self and friends
>    - Storing and retrieving per-app and per-app-per-user data
>
> What is meant by the SPI and where it's located in Shindig.
