    Thank You For Presenting The Anahita Project 

    Ash and I would like to thank the Nooku and Beyounic teams for presenting the Anahita project at the Joomla Day Italia Rome and Nooku presentation. I must say nothing is more encouraging and energizing to us after long sleepless days of coding when a pack of truly awesome friends and brilliant minds spread the word for us with lots of enthusiasm half way across the planet. Ash and I feel truly blessed, appreciated and fortunate to meet and work with the Nooku (twitter: @nooku) and Beyounic (twitter: @beyounic) teams. Thank you for being so awesome :)

      Thanks for creating such a great Social engine on top of Nooku Framework. As the first people building on our framework, you guys have given us so much insight in how we could make it better. That is an experience money can’t buy.

      Greetings!

      Like everyone else I can’t wait for the GPL launch either! I’ve been looking for an open source social networking solution for a while now and this is…. this is the one! Excellent interface powered by a intuitive technology. Did I dream you guys up?

    How To Develop a Template for Anahita 

    The focus of Anahita Social Engine 0.9.3 release was mainly to improve the template structure, views, and developing a set of standard CSS tags for the social engine and other existing applications. Before this release, our implementation was trying to accommodate every possible case scenario, but soon we learned that it was rather adding more to the complexity of the system than providing new options to the developers, so we decided to simplify, simplify, simplify instead!

    We have also developed the first set of CSS tags that are descriptive and name-spaced properly so they won’t conflict with any other Joomla extensions that will be running on the same system.

    (More …)

      Looks interesting!\nIncluding MooTools 1.2.3 will not cause any conflicts?

    • Rastin Mehr 2:38 pm on September 13, 2009 Permalink

      Thank you! No they don’t becuase they don’t get loaded both in the same time.

    • Lance 4:54 pm on September 13, 2009 Permalink

      The partials functionality is very impressive as is the mootools\nswitching. Anahita really is good. Will all open social apps soon to be created for the Ning network (since they have now realease ning apps) be able to work with Anahita.

    • peerglobe 6:24 pm on September 13, 2009 Permalink

      @lance,

      For open social apps to work directly with Anahita, we need to develop an opensocial container like shinding (http://incubator.apache.org/shindig/) for Anahita first. We will look into that hopefully after our first public release.

    • Rastin Mehr 6:30 pm on September 13, 2009 Permalink

      @lance,

      True, right now we are considering and following the Open Social guidelines and philosophy while we make sure we are not exclusively married to it. At this moment we are focused to perfect the platform and API first. We also have to finish migrating to the next release of Nooku Framework which is 0.7 before investing in developing APIs for social apps that are not running directly inside the Anahita Social Engine container.

      hello Rastin Mehr and all, I am visitor here and after about an hour of reading almost every page of Anahita, I can quite say this component or engine is super-impressive!

      I couldn’t find the right post to get this out so I hope you guys dont mind I am posting this here. I want to share my overall feedback after went through this whole Anahita thing:

      What catch my attention the most was the scalable Amazon cloud option and injected module, Gadget (could use some explanation on Gadget). These are really the killer-features IMO.

      Another thing is I am surprised to see that Anahita doesn’t utilize real-time (or relative) timestamp just like every others do. Namely Facebook, Twitter and more. Even some other Joomla’s components like k2, etc. also make use of this timestamp format.

      From the option of scalable Amazon sw3, we could assume we are looking at potentially large pool of users. This pool could mean the end users could consist of regional or even worldwide user base. This is when relative timestamp comes in. 4 hours ago means its 4 hours ago, regardless where we are in the globe.

      The problem with typical Joomla components (BuddyPress etc. already utilize relative timestamp as option) are indeed, this. Yes there is timezone setting. But that just means, whenever users login/logout, the time will show differently when users’ local time aren’t the same as server’s timezone setting.

      Another thing that I found missing is, the backend screenshots from Anahita.

      From my quick run through, this minimalist looking yet extensible social engine are doing everything so perfectly up to this point. Hopefully some issues or challenges could make this goddess matures even faster and better! :)

      my $0.02. Thanks for your time.

    • ajmal afif 8:11 pm on September 29, 2009 Permalink

      upon my comment above,

      I overlooked two most interesting features listed by Anahita core devs.

      1) Translatable Interface & Messaging! My goodness looks like Anahita has been planned flawlessly. Again with that Amazon sw3 in mind, having multiple languages support is much need. This is something that other devs could easily overlook.

      2) Facebook Connect – import friends and Activity Stories. This has not been done by any Joomla social components out there yet. None. If anything really do this, then Anahita is really the pioneer of this feature.

      seems like killer-features are almost half of list. I could say this is not just another great looking Joomla community handler. Anahita has substances, from the look of it.

    Anahita Social Engine ™ with Joomla! from Nooku TV 

    Anahita Social Engine with Joomla! from Nooku on Vimeo.

    Peter Russell interviews me about Anahita (a social engine framework for Joomla). At its core Anahita is powered by Nooku Framework.
    My experience with Nooku Framework took Anahita to unexpected levels:

    • rmd Studio and Peerglobe Technology discover Nooku Framework
    • Subsequently entirely re-wrote Anahita (using Nooku) in six weeks
    • Far more fun!
    • Could not have built Anahita without Nooku Framework
    • Plugs into Joomla!
    • “Symbiotic Alien-life form inside Joomla! makes Joomla better and smarter and live longer…”
    • Nooku is “the MVC core that Joomla always wanted”

    nooku.org • anahitapolis.com

    Thank you SO much peter and the Nooku team, you guys are amazing.

    I wish my best friend and business partner Ash Sanieyan was there with me in the interview as well. He has been spending countless sleepless nights perfecting the Anahita Social Engine ™ technology and he could have provided many interesting inputs about the project from his perspective. Perhaps next time, he’ll get to play the solo on the stage!
