I had started in The World of List View By Roman Guy and Adam Powell …

Spent more time in the GoogleWave live coverage of the session so I switched …

Changed Rooms to Whats the Hubbub about Google Buzz API’s?

Came in when the Seesmic guy was presenting ….

Experience with the standards (see photo of slides) …

Seesmic Desktop has plugins (e.g., bing, buzz, etc) …

Seesmic Web is the second platform …

• Twitter list plus Google Buzz timeline
• See updates, can comment, can pic where to post multiple at a time …

Seesmic for Android client

• Mobile space is growing like crazy

Ping.fm (update many status across networks including buzz …) … released today …

MING from SocialWok

Integration with Buzz API’s

• “People call us the Facebook for GoogleDocs ….”
• Shows Google Profile, and sees Buzz feed …
• Go to SocialWok, select which services to connect to in Settings … answer in google buzz name … we use WebFinger to get the profile …
• Nice page shows what access you are getting … click ok … lets SocialWok post out to GoogleBuzz … can choose from multiple accounts …
• Writes status update in Socialwok, attaches a googledocs, can click on “cc” to also publish to GoogleBuzz …
• SocialWok also integrates into gmail, Gmails contextual social gadget …
• Bottom of the email you can see three profiles
• Will show the social activities between those people, including emails, documents, etc.
• We can pull in GoogleBuzz update
• SocialWok working with Open Web
  • PubSubHubbub to pull feeds into Socialwok (buzz, twitter, facebook, and othe RSS/Atom/Activitystre.ms)
  • ActivityStrea.ms format (so does buzz)
  • missed two more (webfinger and a few others)
• Using Buzz REST API’s
• 3 legged Oauth for authentication
• Publish/CC update to buzz
• Pulling Google profile and buzz feed into gmail contextual gadget (using gemail address and parsing user part….. missed more)
• Next slide
• Cool things about Buzz API’s
  • Open standards based (activitystrea.ms, portable contacts, open social based rest urls for endpoints … it didn’t take much effort to integrate with Buzz because of this)
  • Easy to integrate with Socialwok’s previous work (crosspost namespace even stores the original ID of the post! Can refer back to your original update … activitystrea.ms updates re now POSTed without modication….Posting to buzz before the api’s were defined)
• Future work for Socialwok and Gogle Buzz
  • Rich media using Buzz attachments mechanisms
  • Comment federation using Salmon
  • Federation of Buzz Search results into Socialwok (keyword monitoring)
  • Private Buzz (ACL management … right now we are showing all public … now you can image posting to private Buzz using authenticated Oauth…)
  • Contacts integration (sing Portable Contacts)
  • google-buzz-api
