UCSF is currently collaborating with the Harvard Catalyst PROFILES project. By extending PROFILES with Shindig, UCSF is able to extend PROFILES with no further changes to the profile code or the server environment.

The Applications ( often referred to as widgets or gadgets ) here are XML files that contain HTML, JavaScript (JS) and CSS. In addition to linking to external javascript files and libraries, these apps can make use of the standard OpenSocial Javascript APIs and Libraries included with Shindig.

The UCSF version of Shindig supports a few additional features that better target the use of social data within Academic networks.

A list of applications maintained:

  • Mentors - extends opensocial to support mentorship preferences
  • SlideShare - shows the slides from a single user
  • Web sites - allows addition of URLs to profile
  • Google full text search - returns search results based on full text search of profile
  • List Tool - allows creation of email listserv or file of people, based on search results
  • Pub List - allows export of pubs and pubmed IDs for a person
  • Activity streams - in development
  • Extended narrative - in development
  • NIH grant search (Wake Forest) -in development
  • Pub recommendations (Wake Forest)- in development

Currently, UCSF, Harvard, and Wake Forest are working together on this open project. For more information, see: http://opengadgets.org
