I am sitting here in a talk on OpenSocial by Pravin Nirmal. After small bashing of Facebook, he has begun doing a demo, yes, a live demo! This is what you’d expect in the congregation of geeks in the neo-Silicon Valley of India, Pune. We have a sizable participation from Mumbai, Ahmadnagar.
Update: The speaker has hosted his presentation and the demo programs on his site.
It is using opensocial-0.7. He has hosted it on http://sandbox.orkut.com. Here’s the code:

<ModulePrefs title=”PHPCamp – List Friends”>
<Require feature=”opensocial-0.7″/>

var opt_params = {};
opt_params[opensocial.DataRequest.PeopleRequestFields.MAX] = 20;
req.add(req.newFetchPeopleRequest(‘OWNER_FRIENDS’,opt_params), ‘ownerFriends’);
req.send(onLoadFriends);
}function onLoadFriends(data) {
var ownerFriends = data.get(‘ownerFriends’).getData();
var html=”";
html=’<ul>’;
ownerFriends.each(function(person) {
var friend_thumbnail=person.getField(opensocial.Person.Field.THUMBNAIL_URL);
html +=’<li>’ + person.getDisplayName() + ‘<img src=”‘+friend_thumbnail+’”> </li>’;});

}</script>
