Welcome

Welcome to our blog about all kind of topics that are related to software development. We blog about:

SOA, BPM, EDA, ECM and all the other buzz words. Beware some post might not be so common as you think. We are not scared to go against main stream thoughts.

Technologies like java, maven, springframework, OSGi and front end technologies and frameworks like jQuery, DWR, Flex.

Finally to make this happen we need tools and of course a Mac (well some of us do). So we blog about that as well.

Since we need this functionality for more and more projects I decided to create a very basic sample application to show you how it works.

If you want to use this for your project have a look at the greenhouse project of springsource. They have created some nice abstractions over multiple social websites. This blog is just to help you understand the mechanism behind it and the way it is implemented in the spring-social project.
