DEVELOPER DIARY: Social Connect Code
By coonce 14 Comments
Hey guys -- I've been a little quiet the past week or two - but that's cause we've all been so damn busy fixing bugs and building new stuff for you dudes.
By now - you should have all pretty much seen Dave's new profile and site mocks (awesome stuff - if you haven't checked them out, you can see the mocks at:

)
And I've been working with him to get our signup/sign on code organized so we can start to make it better, more seamless. A big part of that, is building the functionality to allow you dudes to sync your GiantBomb account to your Facebook account or your OpenSocial account -- so that we can share data back and forth between all of those accounts. Anyway, its been a bigger project and I'm currently finishing up the Facebook Connect stuff and moving on to integrating all of it into your profiles......
The game plan, and this isn't definite - is to merge my code branch into Dave's redesign branch and work together to get everything pushed out sometime in February..... again, we're still trying figure out our timelines on all this - but I just thought you dudes would be interested.
As always, hope everybody is doing well - stay classy.
