Need a template and VideoWhisper.com module tweaks, new module implementations to build an alternative to Tinychat using Elgg.org .
Current project includes these 2 VideoWhisper modules:
http://www.videowhisper.com/?p=Elgg-Video-Conference
http://www.videowhisper.com/?p=Elgg-Video-Chat-Plugin
A sample site of current project is available at http://instantvideoconference.com/ .
Like the 2 existing modules (for conference and 2 way rooms), new modules should be integrated for:
– 1 way streaming (with broadcast and watch interfaces) from http://www.videowhisper.com/?p=PHP-Live-Streaming
– eLearning rooms from http://www.videowhisper.com/?p=PHP-Video-Consultation
The new template, module tweaks should include functionality improvements as on tinychat.com, i.e. :
+ Descriptive frontpage to create rooms (of available types), access features, signup, signin
+ Template should be css based, clean, modern web 2.0 style
+ Live directory (listing rooms with snapshots already generated by the existing modules)
+ Twitter and Facebook connect, status updates when entering a chat first time that day
+ Twitter and Facebook integrations should have viral functionality: announce link when user creates new rooms or enters a certain chat room. This should have flood protection (no more than one announcement per 15 minutes).
+ Tweet, Like on site and rooms
+ Template should keep Elgg features like latest activity, friends, groups, dashboard, support for other modules, spotlight.
All current php source code is available under GPL for further development.
Code should be built using Elgg coding standards.
