Hello all,

Intridea ([http://www.intridea.com](http://www.intridea.com)) has just released ‘OpenlySociable  
Micro’, which is a clean, simple and concise way of writing OpenSocial  
widgets.  
It uses Camping and Mongrel to allow developers to write very self-  
contained widgets for OpenSocial-enabled websites with none of the  
overhead of  
a full-on Rails application.

More details are here on the Intridea blog:  
[http://www.intridea.com/2007/11/9/announcing-openlysociable-micro-an-opensocial-widget-microframework](http://www.intridea.com/2007/11/9/announcing-openlysociable-micro-an-opensocial-widget-microframework)

Here’s what the ‘Hello World’ widget looks like:

require ‘openly\_sociable\_micro’

OpenSocial.make\_app :HelloWorld

module HelloWorld::Controllers  
class Index \< R ‘/’  
def get  
@title = “Hello World”  
render :index  
end  
end  
end

module HelloWorld::Views  
def index  
p “Hello World”  
end  
end

OpenSocial.start\_mongrel :HelloWorld, :port =\> 3301, :root =\> “/”

Plans to integrate with Rubyforge are underway.

Thanks,  
Pradeep E.
