OpenSocial | Google Groups

Welcome to the official OpenSocial forum!

OpenSocial provides a common set of APIs for building social applications that run across multiple websites. With standard JavaScript and HTML, developers can create apps that access a social network's friends and update feeds. This forum is the place for anyone interested in OpenSocial to post questions, share ideas, and participate in community discussion around the APIs.
