Validating the activity would be specific to your SNS. Do you allow activities to be created for just the currently logged in user? Or can a user create an activity for their friends? Do you have a length limit on the title size? etc etc. That's all up to you.
As for template expanding - I'm not sure if anyone has this yet. The idea here would prob be to ask the gadgets server for the message bundle corresponding to the titleId and then you would have to expand that template using the activity's templateParams field. You could also evaluate on the way out instead of on the way in so that you can present summaries of activities. I don't think we will have more info than that until someone actually does it... Hope that helps. - Cassie On Mon, Jul 28, 2008 at 9:16 AM, Brandon Peters <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > Hello, > I'm working on implementing an ActivitiesService for my SNS and I've > come across this line: > > // TODO: Validate the activity and do any template expanding > > Any suggestions on how to validate an activity, or do template > expanding.
