List of Open Social Applications on Orkut

A huge list of Orkut/opensocial applications http://opensocialdirectory.org/wiki/Main_Page I saw a couple of other pages where you can get a list of applications. I will be updating this list when I get more urls.

If you want to know how you can add the applications to your orkut profile check out this post

These are some of the applications which I like.

1) .. will update later

Now for some ideas I have. A cool looking wall where friends can draw on the canvas. Add pictures and other things. It could turn out to be a complicated widget but it would work.

A widget to use the awesome new service drop.io. If you visit my drop [http://drop.io/vivekjishtu] you can drop files, links and notes on my page. And all of it without filling up a single sign up form.

A twitter widget where a user can post and keep in touch with other friends. I was making it but still not done with it. Anyhow the next application to be completed would be drop.io

Hi Vivek,

I just started (couple of days back) working on open socializing the applications; to make them work on multiple containers (orkut, hi5 etc...)
I was going through your blog; adding facebook app in orkut.. found interesting.
I tried something similar but, no luck.
I have a app (lets say name: xyz and url: http://apps.facebook.com/xyz). I wrote a xml (copied http://vivekjishtu.com/opensocial/facebook.xml and modified the url part).

Thanks in advance.

The best mobile development platform for hobbyist programmer

This is something I have been thinking for a while so here it goes. This is a list of platforms I know of and my choice of what makes sense for a hobbyist programmer like me. Let me first list down all the possible platforms and then list down the pros and cons that I feel are associated with each platform. Java ME (The platform formally known as J2ME) Windows Mobile Linux Palm Brew Symbian Blackberry iPhone iPhone Let me start with iPhone the darling of the media and blogger's till about a fortnight. I had real expectations from iPhone as a platform but the way its been going so far I would never bother developing for it. Officially there is no SDK with which one can build applications. What ever tools the community had built have been rendered useless with the iPhone 1.1.1 software upgrade . The community might be able to hack a version for 1.1.1 but without any support from almighty apple its just a cat and mouse game. With every minor release the applications

Airtel 16Mbps for Impatient Ones

This advert can be the summed as the best in terms of making fun of the impatient ones. The new Airtel broadband is 16 Mbps but with a slight hitch. At Rs. 2999/- with a Data Transfer Limit of just 20 GB. Just listening to a few hours of music videos on Youtube should be enough to exhaust the limit in no time. Thinking of downloading torrents is something one should not even think about. Not sure who Airtel is targeting with this plan. If you bought this plan do leave a comment.
