This Week's Webinar - OpenSocial for GlassFish
We have one Webinar this week, plus a heads up for two forthcoming webinars:
|
• On Thursday, October 9th, 11:15am PT, a Technical Webinar on SocialSite and OpenSocial by David Johnson (of Apache Roller fame). Dave will describe the basics of OpenSocial and will introduce SocialSite and describe its benefits, architecture and Widgets and Web Services. And, a heads up to the Brazilian and Spanish speaking communities: I am planning to host two special 1 hour webinars to cover GlassFish v3 Prelude and the rest of the GlassFish roadmap. Let me know if you want a direct invitation (*). |
(*) You can contact me by email (ping me if I don't reply, my inbox is in bad shape), or just add a comment to this entry and include your email in the optional field of the comment. I'll post the information on the webinars at TheAquarium during the weekend.

... Facelets, OpenSocial and Shindig, Mango, JavaEE Workshop, Mitel and Dtrace
A compilation of today's news of interest:
|
|
Jeffrey reports that the trunk of NetBeans 6.5 now includes Facelets Support. The plan is for JSF 2.0 to include a presentation language evolved from Facelets; see Ed's latest post. Jamey reports that OpenSocial 0.8.1 is ready and Shindig 1.0 is very close. Good news for SocialSite as it relies on both. From Adam an announcement of a JavaEE Workshop. Adam says he is writing a book for O'Reilly - will check out with him, but I presume it is based on GlassFish Server. And a new acronym from Yip-Hin: MANGO, as in My SQL And Netbeans, Glassfish and Open. First time I hear it; cute name, but all I know is this entry. From Canada news of a partnership between Mitel and Sun that's leveraging VoIP and Sun's thin client technology (SunRays); see Partnership Description. And The Observatory continues with their series on reasons to use OpenSolaris; number 2 is DTrace. |

Project SocialSite roundup
|
Project SocialSite was announced at JavaOne back in May (presentation) and code was released earlier this month. Installing this social computing enabler is quite simple when following the install guide (even if you can be a little disturbed by the SSO feature enabled by default). If you'd like to follow the progress of this project, the SocialSite Group Blog is probably the one place to look at. |
One of the key technology used in SocialSite is Shindig, a reference implementation for the Google-initiated OpenSocial API (now up to v0.8). This API has strong backup from all the major social networks (LinkedIn, MySpace, Plaxo, Ning, SalesForce.com, Hi5, and more) except for Facebook as of this writing. The value proposition of such a widely adopted API is that of writing an application one and deploying in on multiple social containers (sounds familiar? :-). The theory is that you can reach half a Billion users with a single OpenSocial Gadget.
Dave Johnson, creator of the the Roller blogging engine and lead for SocialSite promises more demos and code to understand the value of SocialSite as an addition to existing infrastructure such as Roller. I believe Social computing has great potential in the enterprise to create more value from better qualified interactions and connections between employees.
... US Ruling on OpenSource Licenses, Wotif and OpenMQ, Rails Conf, SocialSite and OpenSocial, LWUIT
A compilation of today's news of interest:
|
|
TheRegister reports on a ruling by the US Federal Court of Appeals asserting the Validity of Open Source Licenses. As usual, IANAL, but this surely looks like good news for OpenSource companies (like Sun). Wotif.COM is now a formal reference for Sun's distributions of GlassFIsh Server and OpenMQ. Arun will be Presenting at Rails Europe, Sept 2-4 in Berlin. Ana describes how to migrate SocialSite widgets from OpenSocial 0.7 to 0.8. And Patrick has Nice Words about SocialSite. LWUIT was released, with posts at OnTheRecord, Shai and Terrence. |
SocialSite Launch
|
SocialSite was formally launched yesterday
(although it is not part of the Beijing Olympics :-).
SocialSite
(Home Page,
TheAquarium SocialSite has a very flexible architecture; the social network lives alongside the existing site/app which can be written in anything - see this Screencast. Check out Dave's Announcement; we already have Downloads, Installation Instructions and Code Repository (SVN), but stay tuned for further details. |
SocialSite is part of the GlassFish community and will follow its transparency and openness policies.

SocialSite Screencast
|
Check out this short Screencast for an overview of Project SocialSite, the new GlassFish project that we announced last week. The project decouples the Java-based server side and the client, and, through the OpenSocial API, enables the addition of Social Gadgets to your web site or application. |
Project SocialSite - MultiLingual, Scalable, OpenSocial Software for GlassFish
On Monday, at CommunityOne, Dave gave the first public presentation of SocialSite, a new project designed to add OpenSocial applications to your site, regardless on whether it uses JSP, PHP, or other technologies.
|
Dave and Jamey will be giving more details on SocialSite on Thursday: BOF-5857: Turn your website into an OpenSocial container with Project SocialSite. 6:30 PM on Thursday at Esplanade 307/310. Also see Dave's note. |
