There are quite a number of Social Software related talks coming up at JavaOne and CommunityOne this year. You can learn about everything from building Social Networks with the Liferay portal and federated relationships with OpenSSO to creating 3D virtual works and implementing OpenSocial with Java. And, I'll finally be able to talk about what I've been working on for the past couple of months -- more about that later.

Here are the 11 Social Software related talks that I've found so far at both JavaOne and CommunityOne. Did I leave any out?
