About this Presentation

Do you know what your application's users are doing when they're not using your application? Odds are good that they're spending time on Facebook, Twitter, or any of the other social network sites that are so prevalent today. If only your application could somehow go with them into those sites, adding value to their experience in both places.

In this session, you will learn how to build rich web applications that interact with the major social networks. We will highlight the open source technology available for simplifying social media integration, and will show you how to add social features to your own applications.
