MySpace continues to embrace standards on new release of our APIs

[Monica Keller]

Hi Guys
Just wanted to let you know that we just launched our Real Time Stream
which pushes activitystrea.ms feeds of activities to our consumers and
some other goodies that go hand in hand for distributed social
networking.

Our official dev blog is at
http://developer.myspace.com/Community/blogs/devteam/archive/2009/12/08/opening-the-flood-gates-and-unleashing-the-data.aspx

Our updates PUSH follows PubSubHubBub hub to subscriber authenticated
HTTP Post notifications with HMAC signature using the sha1 algorithm
with a shared secret as the key, and the bytes of the Atom
ActivityStrea.ms document as the signed content so subscribers can
reuse existing code to receive the updates.
Thanks to Brad & Bret for their help getting this set up and of course
the myspace dev team for their late nights :)

We plan on launching the discovery process from a users profile within
the next couple weeks and we will be actively working with the
PubSubHubBub mailing list to come to a good solution for private
feeds.

Try it by signing into http://developer.myspace.com

thanks for the feedback

Indeed, great news!

Eager to see what people do with this stream — and what additional features (if any) people are looking for...

Hey Alexis,
Thanks at the moment we are managing subscriptions using REST+oAuth
because there is a lot of information which can be specified beyond
what a topic url would provide. See
http://developerwiki.myspace.com/index.php?title=Stream_Subscription_API

But the team is almost done adding support for full end to end PSHB by
doing discovery from a myspace profile to the atom feed to the hub and
the traditional flow for creating a subscription passing a topic url.
I need to review exactly where the mailing group ended on having a
topic url for the firehose to see if we can add that as well.

Yes the firehose discovery conversation is a fun one. =) I've got a
proposal in the works, and the other proposals so far have been
informative. For fear we overwhelm this thread with that discussion,
I'll try to start another one in the group sometime next week (busy
busy time!)
