Chapter 5. Porting Applications, Profiles, and Friendships

As we dive further into the social and profile features of the OpenSocial specification, this chapter will look into using a container user’s social information to personalize applications. We’ll also explore how the social details between containers differ, how to port them from one social container to the next, and how to balance client- and server-side components in this context. After breaking down the social profile into its individual parts, I’ll provide code to show you how to use the JavaScript APIs.
