SocialWeb Conference vol.1 was held at DeNA Office on 23rd Jan. packed with 50 people and had waiting list. I felt that SocialWeb is really hot topic and is going to break sometime soon in Japan.

My presentation was to show direction of this community as a moderator and then, what concrete service look like over seas, and how main players are acting against social web. Most stuff was introduced on this blog but, it made a good summary, hopefully.

The slide is uploaded on SlideShare (all in japanese :P). Some fonts look ugly but you can download the PowerPoint itself. Please take a look.

There was also presentations from yoichiro about OpenSocial, from id:ZIGOROu about OpenID. You can check out summary of the conference on this page.

Finally, I’d like to thank DeNA for offering nice conference room to us, and DeNA staff for helping us out on many situations.

そういえばソーシャルウェブ周りに関する勉強会をするコミュニティが存在しないなあと思い立ち、Google GroupsにSocialWeb Japanを立ち上げました。

SocialWeb JapanはOpenStackやFacebookを中心とした、ソーシャルウェブにまつわる技術の情報交換、勉強会の開催を目的としたコミュニティです。

これらのキーワードにピンときた方はぜひご参加を。

• OpenID
• OAuth
• OpenSocial
• PortableContacts
• XRDS-Simple
• Google FriendConnect
• Facebook Connect
• MySpaceID
• Yahoo! Open Strategy
• etc…

ZIGOROuさんと話してたら、ものすごい勢いでIRCも立ち上げて頂きw

#socialweb-ja@freenode

ご参加お待ちしております。
