when they are needed

• Create an iWidget or OpenSocial gadget to contain the Navigator and place it where the ECM content is needed• Can be a Community, Activity Stream, …
• Deploy and enjoy!• Some functionality will require an application to act as a
proxy between OpenSocial API and FileNet• Can reside on any WAS box within the platform
