Hello,

I would like to know the meaning of the URL's provided by google for its Friend Connect.

For example, in the FCAUTH, the user details can be grabbed by sending a request to the following link and a JSON encoded string will be returned

http://www.google.com/friendconnect/api/people/@viewer/@self?fcauth=<some-cookie-value>

Also for getting user activites, I came across a link as below

http://www.google.com/friendconnect/api/activities/@owner/@friends/@app?fcauth=<cookie>

What if I change the @owner to @me or @viewer , what would be the meaning and would it be valid?

Example, if i change it as

http://www.google.com/friendconnect/api/activities/@me/@friends/@app?fcauth=<cookie>

http://www.google.com/friendconnect/api/activities/@viewer/@friends/@app?fcauth=<cookie>

Also, could some one suggest me where can I get the User Profile URL for the user using the same method as above?

Thankx guys
