The v0.10 of the Android FOAFViewer exists now for approximately 6 months, but I have never presented here. The only blog entry about the FOAFViewer is the very first, very trivial and ugly prototype. So lets start with a short feature overiew:
- Cleaner Interface.
- Recursive Iteration over the friend relationships.
- Caching mechanism (not the images) for offline view of your FOAF profile and that of your friends.
- Location visualization with one click.
- Share your FOAF link over all supported channels that are able to share text (e.g. bluetooth, short message, email, …)
- Link to further information for the interests
- Make a phone call directly from the application (starts the dialer app)
- Fixed bug with Froyo 2.2
- Not supported yet (very buggy) is the ability to add a FOAF profile to your contacts.
