Continuing the rocking start we've had to 2009, we have two great presentations lined up for Feb. on developing OpenSocial applications and on locally developed Web 3.0 enabled lifestreaming service kakuteru.com

PRESENTATION 1: Head First OpenSocial

Toshimasa Ishibashi, web engineer at Media Technology Lab @Recruit, will give a brief introduction to opensocial application programming. OpenSocial is on it's way for a broad release here in Japan with Mixi hosting it as an open beta platform, this coming spring.

Non techies will have the chance to learn more about this new web trend. For developers, using his personal 'head first' experience, Toshimasa will talk about some of the basic concepts of the specification, and share some sample code and tips for non-hassle development.
