Heading to Foo Camp

...up in Sebastopol. May actually camp this time. There are so many Google people going, I looked into whether we could charter a bus, just like summer camp. No dice; maybe next year people will see a bunch of Googlers singing songs in a bus.

The Unbearable Lightness of the Social Graph API

Cool. Looks like we've announced Brad's Social Graph API! Looking forward to talking with people at Social Graph Foo Camp about this. One note... one of the pieces of public data which the API leverages is OpenID delegate links. So a user can prove ownership of an entire set of appropriately-linked Social Graph nodes.

The best place to play with the API (and see what data it's returning) is with the Playground tool.

Going to Social Graph Foo Camp 08

This should be fun. I hope I'll have something interesting to say at Social Graph Foo Camp. I know I'll hear a lot of interesting discussions. Any tips?

(Hmm. Are we really going to camp outside in February in Sebastopol? It's doable I guess but...)
