More Connect Mockups

Started by manalang · 9 months ago

Rich has finished a few more mockups of the changes we’re making to support OpenSocial.
Since our last episode, he’s finished the Profile page. Take a look.

One thing (other than location data, which will return soon, promise) people have been missing since w ... Continue reading »

  • The mockups are looking great guys, I can't wait to see it get pushed internally. I've been thinking about an app I would like to see integrated and think I've got a really good one for both Connect and Mix (BTW, do we have a platform name yet?). I'm not sure if its possible with the currently available data sets, but I'd like to be able to select products that I'm interested in or work with on a daily basis and see when a new release, metalink note, or patch is available.

    It would be a great way to keep on top of what's going on with each product. Maybe even link it to the profiles of the PMs for the products. Just a thought, I'm pretty sure the data is available via metalink.
  • Thanks dude. Good idea, and definitely useful for Mix and possibly Connect. If you want, you can build it :) Ping me for the skinny.
  • Sounds like a good project to crank out the week of OpenWorld. I'll ping you to see who I should bug about getting access to metalink data.
  • Yup, that's where it gets interesting.
  • Hey. OpenSocial is now officially my new latest favourite thing!

    Two questions;
    1) When's Connect going to roll out it's OpenSocial support?
    2) If I want to leverage an existing app into a Connect OpenSocial app (say; I want to embed OraTweet into a Connect app) then how will authentication work, OAuth?

    Thanks for getting me all excited so early in the week with this magical geekery.
  • Glad to hear it.
    1) We're planning for October, probably mid-to-late, what with OpenWorld fires igniting each day. You can start building today though. Ping me for details.
    2) OS uses OAuth by default, but Anthony has made it work with corporate SSO. Details here: http://oracleappslab.com/2008/05/30/opensocial-...

    Should be a fun ride. We know people will love having a network on which to deploy their apps.
  • Coolio!

    And yep, I just found that OpenSocial / SSO blog post. That's neat.
  • Great, let me know if you have questions or want more information.
  • You've got mail. Well; a Direct Message.
