I went to a 60+ conference where WidgetBox, Google (the dark empire), and Hi5 were hosting a OpenSocial and get-to-know how to launch widgets event in San Francisco.  I was pleased with the turnout, roughly 60+ people attended representing between 10 to 15 different companies.  And did I mention that they had FREE  free pizza and beer?  Good stuff!

Anyway, the biggest takeaway for me was the contacts that I met at the event and to hear what Google was up to next.  Hi5, for those of you that don’t know, is by far the largest social network with the most up-to-date implementation of Open Social to date.  We’re excited to begin working towards building our first OpenSocial appliation on Hi5 when the time comes - and hopefully, we’ll be ready.
