<tt>Hi Ken,<br>
<br>
So do you think extending MySite to have a friends' recent activity
would make sense? I haven't used MySite at all so don't really know if
this would fit or not as I'll want to track other actions like
friendships, donations, etc.<br>
<br>
I just had a thought that would allow us to use Views for this just
like we can have comment Views now. I'm using Usernode on my site and
could attach all these watchdog_user rows to that Usernode and expose
that information to Views. I feel like if any site is going to have
this heavy of a Social Networking feature that they should be using
Usernode anyways. Then we could use filters to just get Friendship
activity if we wanted, or just get "Comment" activity if we wanted.
Also, we could optionally record a node ID in our watchdog_user table.<br>
<br>
I like the idea of pushing all messages into a watchdog_user table, but
feel like it might be a better option to still pull this data and just
cache the block. That wouldn't allow us to use Views though.<br>
<br>
Anybody have any specific implementation suggestions for this? Push vs.
Pull? I'd like to make this generic/reusable and think it's a pretty
cool feature for Social Networking.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

As for tracking friends' content, the MySite module has methods for
this, and an API for adding new functionality.<br>
