The graduate thesis covers technologies, protocols, format of data being transfered, identity management and processes involved in the implementation of web applications supporting social network providers. It covers issues such as how users gain an identity in web applications, the protection of that identity and the technologies supporting that protection. When implementing such web applications we can use service providers for user identity management and in that case we have to use protocols needed to identify the user in a safe way. We have developed the web application using JavaScript language on the client side and PHP on the server side and covers authentication protocols including Facebook Connect and OAuth. Web application use database server for storing data in a secure and structured way. The application is using database for servicing dynamic web content.
