i would think that it would be fairly easy to link to a JS file with
some default data. i would assume that there would either be a
varrable in or a different JS file to load depending on whether the
viewer is anonymous, a friend of the owner, a friend of a friend of
the owner, just logged in, or the owner. This should give an easier
method of testing locally without a network.

check out happyhour http://code.google.com/p/happyhour/
its a js file that implements the OpenSocial v0.7 Framework, and
connects it to google gears.
i think i would prefer to have it as a full browser plugin, and
instead of getting data from a local store,
i would like to be able to get access to prototype examples that are
community built.
like
"george" is someone with no friends, but is married with "laura"
"laura" has 2 kids, barbara, and jenna, but they don't want their dad
"george" to know what they are up to and they sometimes share more
data with their mom.
"barrak" and "paul" have a lot of friends in common but also a lot
that are not in common, each might have 50,000- 2,000,000 friends
"john" who went to school with "george" but they don't get along now
"arnold" who has a lot of friends, and is part of two groups,
"hollywood" and "politics"
"violet" might like gothic styles, so everything is black, and she
always hates it when apps use black text and white backgrounds
my point, even though its themed a little, is it would be great to
have a community of open data that prototypes a number of scenarios
and would be cached locally in browser, but the data warehouse would
be on line.
having a standard set of characters, would mean that when we are
testing, we can say i was having a problem with the "VIOLET" profile
rendering my widget, can you take a look at it. I think it might also
create a few inside jokes.
Ok, time to get back to work, let me know if you start using HappyHour.
