orkut going more social
11. Februar 2008
Posted by Amar Gandhi, orkut Group Product Manager
Starting this month, we're enabling developers to make their social applications available to orkut users. We'll start ramping up to more than 50 million people over the next few weeks.
To prepare for this growth, we're now accepting social applications. For a while now, developers have been able to write, test, and play with applications on orkut. Later this month, however, we're going to start rolling them out to orkut users. OpenSocial developers can
submit
their completed applications (deadline: Feb. 15).
To help developers ready their applications, we're offering engineering support and training. We've scheduled
orkut hackathons
on Feb. 14-15 from 10 am-6 pm at the Googleplex in Mountain View and via videoconference in New York. For more information or to RSVP, please email
hackathon.rsvp@gmail.com
. If you can't attend, we hope to see you in the
OpenSocial forums
or on chat (irc://irc.freenode.net/opensocial).
