Initially, the objective of this open source project is to create a site that will allow users to create applications based on the OpenSocial API v0.8 on a .NET platform. It also acts as a playground to test out other social frameworks and web technologies like Facebook, Google Friend Connect, Twitter and Windows Azure. The goal is to create a social platform that integrates these social frameworks as an engine for those interested in playing around with the social web.&lt;br /&gt;

Raya requires the use of &lt;a href="http://code.google.com/p/pesta" class="externalLink"&gt;pesta&lt;span class="externalLinkIcon"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; which is a .NET port of the OpenSocial gadget server Shindig.

&lt;h1&gt;Future plans&lt;/h1&gt;Future plans include

Initially, the objective of this open source project is to create a site that will allow users to create applications based on the OpenSocial API v0.8 on a .NET platform. It also acts as a playground to test out other social frameworks and web technologies like Facebook, Google Friend Connect, Twitter and Windows Azure. The goal is to create a social platform that integrates these social frameworks as an engine for those interested in capitalising on the social web.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Demo&lt;/h1&gt;A live version is available at &lt;a href="http://raya.my6solutions.com" class="externalLink"&gt;http://raya.my6solutions.com&lt;span class="externalLinkIcon"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.
