Lots of good thoughts here especially #3 on the problematic side. I think the hype needs to die down a bit first and see what folks build. Ted,

You need to pontificate more often.

Lots of good thoughts here especially #3 on the problematic side.

I think the hype needs to die down a bit first and see what folks build.

Technically id doesn't offer yu much as the original API should have 24/7 availability, but with OpenSocial you could embed your 'App' into a newtwork, which is really just a socket directly convery information for that user account, bout out and in, in a manner that is is controalled by a single server master, or prehaps a client-based master. Now imagine if your software had an extension for every major netowrk, that you could install for each user of yours that had a profile with one of the networks. I see the benefits of OpenSocial is not an App being in the SocNet, but a network of related apps being all the SocialNetoworks transferring data in and out via a semi-permanent socket. In the end out data will be much more interesting that in data as users will be able to move off interfacing with the SocNet as it will be easier to interface with their MegaMeta interface that controls them all. .
