Yesterday, I spent some time looking at the OpenSocial APIs.

http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial/

I think erlhive should be able to support this fairly easily,
and much of it ought to be feasible as generic support
(for example, fetching profiles for registered erlhive users.)

I'll venture a vague commitment that erlhive will support opensocial,
but make no promises as to when I'll be able to implement it. (:
If anyone else is interested - a great opportunity to get acquainted
with the OpenSocial APIs - just let me know you're looking at it.

BR,
