OpenSocial
created 08 June 2009 in notes.
| Tom | seriously, opensocial is one of those 'can be used to solve any problem _except_ problems caused by too much javascript bogging everything down' solutions. |
| Tom | you just extend the container API with some verbs that describe your service. |
| Tom | for instance, dopplr public pages with embeddable widgets written by 3rd parties that can get your trip data and display pretty graphs. |
| Aaron | every webpage a portal |
| Aaron | OF QUICKSAND |
| Aaron | OF TIMESPACE |
| Tom | Also, once you cam EMBED WIDGETS IN OTHER WIDGETS.. |
| Aaron | the web will eat itself |
| Tom | Actually, I can't even think of a _bad_ use for that. |
| Tom | it would be a more ELEGANT DESIGN to implement your entire site _as_ an opensocial widget! |
| Tom | PERFECT |
| Tom | I will now go looking for VENTURE CAPITAL |
| Tom | and maybe SLEEP. |
