Today we took the next step in building a relationship with Huntress Group - a global IT focused human resources business.

Huntress Group is focused on building teams for traditional corporate environments, but always open to discussing any need and redirecting if approriate.

If you have a need for implementation resources on a project, feel free to contact James Radcliffe (James.Radcliffe@HuntressGroup.com).

We are also working with other groups and continue to build more resource partnerships for use within the ibCom mydigitalstructure.com ecosystem.

We are also starting to build up the mydigitalstructure.com/resources page, with links to resources like this and also educational resources. 

You can create a formatted version of a messenger conversation for internal use or creating a public facing blog.

If it is a public facing blog, then it is important that it can be indexed by search engines (like Google).   Search engines work through the content (HTML formatted) and the links contained with in the content to crawl the blog.

The following getting started guide steps through how a developer can set it up a blog that is suitable for indexing.

The user experience (adding comments etc) can then by progressively added using jQuery/js and the onemand MESSAGING_CONVERSATION methods.

In addition to the recent update to OAuth integration (allowing access to services like Twitter), we have now also updated the OAuth2.0 consumer integration.

This allows you to access (consume) other services that use OAuth2.0 access control - a simpler version of OAuth.  The largest service to use OAuth2.0 is Facebook.

This allows you to seamless mash the Facebook model (graph) into any mydigitalstructure based application - allowing access information about people your organisation may interact with and also the ability post information to them.

Another key concept, and why this type of integration is key to application development going forward, is the Open Graph development currently in progress at Facebook - where the Facebook graph goes beyond "people" and the simple action of "like".  If your organisation involves communicating with people and selling products and services, understanding the Open Graph could be just as critical in the future as understanding web page SEO is today.
