Working a bit with Objective-C recently in my spare time, I’ve noticed they introduced something to the Objective-C Protocol declaration, which is the ability to specify that certain methods in a protocol1 are optional for implementation.

I always wanted to see and know what the people reading the blog actually thought of it.

I do know many come to Chaotic Java from Google, referring to it when needed if CJ has a popular answer on a certain topic. However, I really liked posts like the IDE Wars post, where people started a discussion in the comments area – it was something. That’s why I tried having an IRC day/week – which was fun but attracted only a couple of people.

Today I noticed something called “Google Friends Connect“, which is supposed to be an embedded version of the Open Social platform Google and other companies are developing. Obviously, with my luck, it’s probably going to be replaced in a few weeks with Google Wave, but until then – let’s enjoy a little social moment.

So, for your pleasure, the GFC widget, right here in Chaotic Java! Join through the top bar, comment through the comments widget, and connect (or something!)
