Joining forces with My Space, Google is now going to have an audience of some 200 million folks in their new  Open Social platform that will link social networkswith standard applications known as API’s.........OpenSocial is a set of common APIs that will work on many different social websites, including <a href="http://www.myspace.com/" target="_blank">MySpace</a>, <a href="http://www.plaxo.com/info" target="_blank">Plaxo</a>, <a href="http://www.hi5.com/" target="_blank">Hi5</a>, <a href="http://www.ning.com/" target="_blank">Ning</a>, <a href="https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=orkut&continue=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.orkut.com%2FRedirLogin.aspx%3Fmsg%3D0%26page%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.orkut.com%252F&hl=en-US&rm=false&passive=true" target="_blank">orkut</a>, and <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>, among others. In addition, this allows developers to learn one API, then write a social application for any of those sites. Learn once, write anywhere, if you will. And because it's built on web standards like HTML and JavaScript, developers don't have to learn a custom programming language. Google not only has My Space in their pocket, but also has other partners sitting in the wings ready to join on board the good ship Google. Other members may include Engage.com, Friendster, hi5, Hyves, imeem, LinkedIn, Ning, Oracle, orkut, Plaxo, Salesforce.com, Six Apart, Tianji, Viadeo, and XING........Lastly, the web is global, and so is the scope of OpenSocial. When you add up the current websites who have committed to implementing OpenSocial, you realize that a developer building for OpenSocial has the chance to reach over 200M+ users in dozens of countries..read the full story here : <a href="http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial/" target="_blank">http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial/</a><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google</a><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/open_social" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/open_social</a>Hello!
