FaceBook to become Open Source?
Has anyone heard about FaceBook becoming Open Source? I read this link today and am quite excited about it ... Facebook To Open Source Facebook Platform
Quote:
Sometime soon, perhaps this week, Facebook will turn the year-old Facebook Platform into an open source project, multiple sources have told us. The immediate effect will be to allow any social network to become Facebook Platform compatible - meaning application developers can easily take their Facebook applications and have them run on those social networks, too.
......
This is a nearly inevitable response to Open Social, which is backed by Google, MySpace and Yahoo. Open Social is also an open source platform, run the the Open Social Foundation.
