MySocials drivers

Driver for social network

User view:

◮ Different networks

(VKontakte, Facebook, etc.)

◮ Different services (Chat,

Image exchange, etc.)

◮ Cross-network collaboration

Application view:

◮ Different API

implementations

◮ Different usage scenarios ◮ Service usage restrictions Kirill Kulakov MySocials: Client for Social Networks MobileLinux2 6 / 23
