So So Social Plug-In.
Powered by jQuery and YQL.

Plug-In Intro

The So So Social plug-in uses jQuery and YQL (Yahoo Query Language) to gather RSS feeds from your various social networks and sorts them into an "activity feed". It basically creates a news feed out of your social networking activity.

Think of it like the news feed on Facebook but for you and your various social networking news.

Plug-In Features

• No server side proxy needed! Thanks to YQL there is no need for any PHP, ASP, CFM, or whatever programming language flavor you prefer to Curl the RSS feeds.
• Completely customizable via CSS and JS settings.
• Super easy to get set up and working.
• Light foot print.

Services Supported "Out of the Box" with icons

• Any RSS feed will work, but if you want specific icon associated...
• Twitter
• Posterous
• Facebook
• Wordpress
• Tumblr
• Last.FM
• Delicious
• Flickr
• Dribbble
• Github
• More to come...

I felt this was a sensible set of services to include with the plug-in. If there is a service not represented like posterous or virb or youtube...the code is open...extend it.

If you're a developer I encourage you to take this and make it better as I know I am not the best developer on earth...far from it. If you do extend or modify the plug-in please share it back to the community. I would love that you gave the project credit if used by providing a link back to the "So So Social Activity Feed". At the very least just let me know where you're using it so I can see it in action :)
