The system has enough functionality to kick off the discussion and get you hacking on your own personal homepage replacement with just a little CSS, JavaScript or Processing.js.<\/p>\n<p>Your profile will look something like <a href=\"http:\/\/sudosocial.me\/u\/pattyokdemo\">the demo<\/a>, which you can easily customize.<\/p>\n<p>Here is another example of an <a href=\"http:\/\/ozten.com\/homepage-demo.html\">embedded homestream<\/a> where the theme was hacked together in a couple of  nights, playing with HTML 5 technologies, and showing some of the  possibilities that having full control over your own lifestream can create. The content is hosted on sudosocial.me and embeded via a javascript tag.<\/p>\n<h2>Getting Started<\/h2>\n<p>All  you need is an <a href=\"http:\/\/openid.net\/get-an-openid\">OpenID account<\/a>.  To get started simply log into <a href=\"https:\/\/sudosocial.me\/auth\">sudosocial.me<\/a>.  Being an experiment (and an early release), keep in mind there will be bugs, security issues, and other bleeding edge nuisances.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the source code, you can also download a VirtualBox appliance that is already setup for hacking on the platform.<\/p>\n<p>This  project&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/github.com\/ozten\/sudosocial#readme\">README file<\/a> has more detail on the ideas that inspired the project.
