Add Chatter Feed and Components to existing Visualforce Page

Is it possible to add Chatter and all of its components to an exsisting Visualforce Page? I would like users to have the ability to upload documents and @mention another user when that document is available.

I have read the article below which is from Winter '11. Has this been updates at all?

Hi Synthia,

It is possible to show all those feeds, using the ConnectAPI classes.

That will have everything you need to create the views. Is it a lot of code? Absolutely. So I guess you are correct that it is "from whole cloth," but at least you can reuse Visualforce Components to show feeds since you're going to use Visualforce instead of regular html.

Let me know if you need any other help.

Thanks,
Neetu
