Social Timeline

September 25 2008
Posted to: ,

In keeping with my addiction to working with the ASP.NET MVC framework I've come up with a little demonstration app that shows how MVC can integrate with JQuery and maybe even an additional javascript framework. This example specifically targets the SIMILE Timeline widget. I saw SIMILE a few weeks ago, then I saw a really nice mimic of it used on Plurk. I figured, there's no reason for the Plurk users to have a corner on the social timeline market. We FriendFeed and Twitter addicts need our timeline too, don't we? So was born this pet project. The timeline only supports the FriendFeed API right now. I'd like to add Twitter next, then maybe an RSS provider, and so on.
Point is, I want to use MVC in conjunction with a little repository-driven goodness to develop a timeline useful for virtually any social software enthusiast. With SIMILE, we can give a nice visual representation of how our social network is moving along, day by day (or in the case of this demo, hour by hour). Take a peek at the MVC-powered Social Timeline.
