Wiki Your Way to hi5 Collaboration

As promised in our previous blog post, the hi5 Platform developer wiki, which includes bug tracker and forums platforms as well, is now available for everyone to edit. We hope in this way to bring members of our developer community together to collaborate and share their collective knowledge about how to create winning and innovative social applications on the hi5 Platform.

You will need an OpenID login to authenticate yourself. Click on OpenID Login at the top right. On the login page, you have to choose an "OpenID provider" from the drop down --- you will see a list of familiar sites that provide login services. The provider you select will typically lead you through a series of simple steps to log in to our wiki. Please contact us at platform-help@hi5.com if you are having trouble using OpenID.

Please submit your bug requests to the tracker (View Tickets in the left navigation bar) -- this will help our team take application developer needs into account when prioritizing changes to the platform. The discussion forum allows you to add topics in different categories. We would love to hear from you if you would like to add new categories to the forum.

The main page and some of the tutorial material on the wiki will be protected to ensure that spammers don't get in the way of new developers who are trying to get their applications off the ground quickly. A rudimentary set of navigation links has been added to the bottom of the main page for you to start editing.

May a million beneficial conversations begin!
