One interesting thing about all these websites having one common API: it doesn't just make it easier to develop k3wl w1dg3tz. It makes the sites easier to *crawl*, MAKING SEMANTIC SENSE OF IT. Aha, Google, aha. No need to write a custom screen-scraper for each site, in order to extract relationships.

The voices they put on make me want to NOT use it. Sounds like an infomercial for the supersweeper. Give me facts not some over blown public speaking voice.
No real info in this video, the ilike demo was nice tho.

Pitty that "real developer" doesn't have access to the social sites friends database etc without spidering it. You missed what this actually does. Not to mention your "real developer" would need to write a friend spider and port of their software for each social community. About 2000% more work.

Yeah I laughted my head off at that comment about myspace. I guess when they called their CSS classes whitetext15 and then promptly changed it to 18 blue text :-) That was them making it easy for users to customise :-D
Or when they sued all the companies that help u customise their poor CSS.
Or when they wrote the bloody thing in an amateurs language for people who don't know code.
MySpace is about the worst bit of software ever developed. But oh so lucky.

the speech seems really recited and forced. I'm sorry, its a good speech and what it conveys is good, but its something ive noticed about google speeches, very very re-hearsed and it doesnt seem natural

this is really not an intimate environment. I love google, but they're better developers than actors. In my dreams, google masters the art of remote intimacy, outside of the search engine.
Thanks for the video, I'm really excited about open social... But this series of videos (and most of googles videos) is not as carefully planned as google's products.

When Google Video failed to get traction & was unable to beat Youtube, they simply bought the latter.
Google would have liked to buy Facebook - but it wasn't for sale and microsoft beat them in the courtship. So, OpenSocial is a "if we can't be the #1 player and if we can't buy it, then we'll make sure nobody owns this" move.

Not really. Social networks can be very valuable platforms. If facebook is very popular developers are forced to distribute only through them.
Google has destroyed a monopoly before it happened.

true .... the thing is that I was getting bored so I jumped to some parts of the video .... I just watched a litle more of it ... but still .... it's only an interface .... nothing more .... yes there are a lot of api's out there .... but it's not like you have to reprogram the thing for each user .... yes it's easyer with evereything standart from the one who made the thing .... but that does not mean that it is imposible, or hard to do with a team behind you. that's whyI think it's not so hot
Array ( 8 months ago by sauax)
me thinking...
independent from 'social network owners' space is achieved by applications using this API.
next step,
'biggest ads company' offers creators (anyone) % of income from ads viewed in applications.
...times are comming where being a small targeted social network will be an adventage.

Facebook has NO incentive to join OpenSocial - developers will automatically build for Facebook regardless because of the popularity and consumer reach. Facebook only loses by joining OpenSocial. Google gains by opening up a proprietary system and figuring out a way to tap into ad revenue. GSB
