Tying it All Together: Implementing the Open Web
Track: Development
Tags Development
The web is currently defining how sites will communicate with each other. OpenID, OAuth, OpenSocial and PortableContacts protocols are becoming the web’s “open stack” and they are becoming more important each week. It’s important to know how they work together before implementing them. Plaxo CTO and community leader Joseph Smarr will lead a session explaining how these pieces fit together.

First of all, let me say that this guy knows what he is talking about !!!! Joseph provided us with so much relevant information that this session only would have been worth the trip (Montreal to NY). I love the idea of open standards, but what he talked about goes beyond that... It's about connectedness, about machines talking to each other, not only is this the next wave of the web, I think it's what makes the Internet interesting in the first place. The technical knowledge that Joseph Smarr has put in this presentation is amazing... Congrats on a good session... Probably the best of the whole event, Keynotes included !
WOW... when do you breathe? Amazing amount of information - it was just spilling out of my brain. One of the Best sessions of the week!!
It was wonderful that your talk functioned as the conclusion of the Expo - jammed packed with info, ideas, and especially dreams of the future and how to make them reality. Bravo.
My summary of the session is here:
