In today's show we talk about all things
OpenSocial with Ryan
Baxter of IBM and Mikkel
Heisterberg of IntraVision.
We talk about:
- What is OpenSocial? How did it
get started?
- How is IBM involved? How can I
get involved?
- How is IBM leveraging OpenSocial?
- What is Apache Shindig and how is it
connected to OpenSocial?
- What are the advantages to building
OpenSocial gadgets over existing technologies? Will I be able to
leverage XPages?
- How do I get started building gadgets?
- What about the community? Is there
a community built around OpenSocial, should the ICS community become involved?
- How can we also leverage the OpenNTF
community?
- Where else can I leverage OpenSocial
outside of embedded experiences?
- What other companies are involved in
OpenSocial?
- What does IBM need from the ICS community
when it comes to OpenSocial?
Also,
here are some links to a few of the things we discussed in the podcast:

We had the pleasure of interviewing IBM
Collaboration Solutions General Manager Alistair Rennie (Twitter),
where we talked about:
- Lotusphere! Specifically, the evolution
of Lotus/IBM products we saw demonstrated there last week.
- What's driving improvements in the Notes/Domino
platform for 2012.
- Why is "social" so important
to businesses right now? What has changed in the past few years to make
it relevant?
- Are traditional desktop applications
going away, in favor of mobile and web initiatives?
- What kind of feedback and takeaways
did Alistair get from Lotusphere?
- And more...
The
podcast runs 24:06 and is best listened to while eating one or more pretzel
cookies.
