  • Outage notications last 7/30/09; back to normal

    So we had some hiccups to get our optimized notification code out. It should be working for you all again. And it is super fast! Most common problems why we drop your notifications: your message content is longer than 150 characters. Note that some MySpace users have very long names. So check before...

  • New Viral Channel for MySpace Apps

    App Activities are now visible to all the friends of a user, regardless if they have the App installed. This means that App Activities are another channel by which your App can virally grow. If you are already publishing App Activities, you technically do not need to make any changes, however we encourage...

  • Re: REST based app notifications problem

    We are always actively fighting spam; The rules are: a notification will only be stored for 7 days only the last 5 notifications are stored We are currently working on some optimalization.

  • Re: Editing Activity Templates

    Brock, This is indeed a gap in our documentation. Once a template is published you cannot add, delete or modify any user variables. You also cannot change the template name.Such changes would break the contract between existing events, or javascript code that has been in production. A template in development...

  • MDP Activities are dissabled on Home and Friends Update

It is really not clear if we are causing the current production issues. I'm on it (together with some other really smart people). As before, you can still call the...

  • Sending messages to the Friend Updates/Activities stream

    I'm sure you are all aware of it. And this message really does not need your attention. But just in case you missed this news; the 0.8 openSocial container allows you to send messages to the Friend Update feed.

  • Re: About aggregated forms of activities

    If you do not have different kind of habitats, you could just remove the variable from just the aggregated format. But you have to leave the definition defined on the atomic version to 'fool' the system. This is definitly a 'hack'; but I hope you can use this for our initial version release...
