Third party support

LodgON allows for the integration of Web 2.0 widgets, allowing for e.g. foto sharing via Flickr, bookmarking via Furl, managing your maps via GoogleMaps, etc. Some examples of integration with third party Web 2.0-suppliers:

Open-id support

OpenID eliminates the need for multiple usernames across different websites, simplifying your online experience. Your OpenID is an identification that can stay with you, no matter which Provider you move to. The OpenID technology is not proprietary and is completely free.

For businesses, this means a lower cost of password and account management, while drawing new web traffic. OpenID lowers user frustration by letting users have control of their login.

For geeks, OpenID is an open, decentralized, free framework for user-centric digital identity. OpenID takes advantage of already existing internet technology (URI, HTTP, SSL, Diffie-Hellman) and realizes that people are already creating identities for themselves whether it be at their blog, photostream, profile page, etc.

Google map integration

Google maps can be integrated via the wysiwyg editor plugin. More advanced maps can be integrated directly via the templates.

Embed a searchable Google Map on your web page and let your users find places around you. Customize how the map should be displayed. You can also use the wizard at Google, and integrate the code directly in the templates for full flexibility.

Flickr support

Flickr is a popular photo sharing service. The Wysiwyg editor lets you immediately include a Flickr-badge in your webpages, so that you can dynamically show photos from your album on your webpages. 

Calendars

Web Calendar Access Protocol is a protocol for remote client-server calendar access and scheduling based on the XML, HTTP, iCalendar, and vCard Internet standards. WCAP was created for use with the product that eventually became Sun Java Calendar Server, but is also used by the open source Buni Meldware project
