Embodiments of the present invention provide a way of embedding a display
of activities relevant to a social network in a third party website. In
particular, embodiments of the present invention provide for an embedded
aggregated event stream. In particular, a display is provided to a user
that indicates various events in a "stacked" format. Each block of the
stacked format represents one or more events originating from the user's
own activities or activities of the user's contacts in their social
network. Activities may originate from accounts on other online services
that the user linked to their account or profile. The stacked format is
updated in substantially real time to provide the user a sense of the
activities of their social network around them.
