I found your social media application that you created in your book to be a nice little thing to make, but I was wondering, seeing as how social media is going every where these days what about the following features:
Adding Twitter feeds? How do you add Twitter feeds to it? I have looked and I haven't been able to find any way to do this, even after reading the follow up in the advanced book. What about OAuth logins and authentication methods? That seems to be a big thing with social media these days. Login into HuffPo using your login to Twitter, Yahoo, Google etc?

Not sure what you're asking. What "social media application" are you talking about?

That is in the book is pretty much a social media application is it not or at least it can be looked at it that way can it not?

Not really. The Gig Pics section is user generated content but that's about it.

Wrox used to have a book on integration with Twitter. Not sure if it still exists though. Don't know of any other books that deal with this. Amazon.com must have lots of useful results.
