Google’s OpenSocial promised a revolution in the online social fabric. However, it hasn’t quite lived up to Google’s extraordinary track record and end user expectations.
Where are the killer apps? What are the use cases for a normal netizen? Why isn’t Facebook, the biggest and fastest growing online social network in the US, part of the OpenSocial alliance? And, most importantly, why can some guy hack the platform 45 minutes after it’s released?
Sometimes Google frustrates me. (OTOH, I understand the difficulties of doing something this huge.)
