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.

There are a lot of places to find more information about OpenSocial:
