As usual, we discussed plenty of practical usages for open source libraries within WordPress. We completed the implementation of a few scenarios and left out some tasks for future development. As developers, you should take this opportunity to get experience in integrating various third-party libraries:
- Track the latest published topics in a separate database table and schedule a cron job for sending notification periodically
- Create a member-specific RSS feed for topics and let users subscribe to get updates
- Implement edit and delete functionality for a topic list using Backbone.js
- Integrate OpenAuth login for Facebook and Twitter
