TechCrunch reveals some details of Google's Social networking project that will possibly be released this week.

<< Details emerged today on Google’s broad social networking ambitions, first reported here in late September, with a follow up earlier this week. The new project, called OpenSocial (URL will go live on Thursday), goes well beyond what we’ve previously reported. It is a set of common APIs that application developers can use to create applications that work on any social networks (called “hosts”) that choose to participate. >>

Seems like the commented Google Social API is going to be released tomorrow.

Above 3 comments were made in the forum before this was blogged,

Having read the press release, the details at TechCruch, and the TechCrunch comments, one thing is still not clear to me.

There's much talk about the API allowing developers to access "core functions" such as "profile information (user data)".

Does this mean the API will make it possible for a site to allow its users to log in using their Google Account, then for the site to access the associated user data (username, email address)?

In other words, could it be used something like OpenID?

Philipp Lenssen [PersonRank 10]

16 years ago #

Roger, Google's Brad mentions OpenID in his manifesto (which may or may not be a description of OpenSocial...):

<<A user should then be able to log into a social application (e.g. dopplr.com) for the first time, ideally but not necessarily with OpenID, and be presented with a dialog like,

   "Hey, we see from public information elsewhere that you already have 28 friends already using dopplr, shown below with rationale about why we're recommending them (what usernames they are on other sites). Which do you want to be friends with here? Or click 'select-all'.">>

Reto Meier [PersonRank 10]

[put at-character here]Philipp, Roger: I read this differently. I invision it as keeping the data 'private' within each environment. The APIs are a common interface to the same functions.

For example, if I write a 'Friendship Circle' widget, it shows a circle with all my friends around the outside, with lines joining those who are also friends with each other together. I write this using OpenSocial, then I can add it to my LinkedIn and Orkut profiles and it will populate my 'circle' with the friends for each network.

I see it as a way of writing Social apps without worrying about which backend you're programming against. Then your users can add it to whichever network(s) they belong to.

I didn't think it would be used to 'merge' networks (Ie. passing your LinkedIn contacts to Orkut).

I feel as if people are missing the money question when it comes to OpenSocial. Google is setting the groundwork to create a social network version of Adsense that utilizes the profile data and actions from publisher's sites.

Roger Browne [PersonRank 10]

16 years ago #

Reto's interpretation is correct. This is confirmed by the very informative post cited by Hashim.

So, when the draft press release says this: "The OpenSocial APIs give developers access to ... a user's profile ..." it means that the API is a way to get a user's profile from the site on which the gadget is installed and to which the user has logged on in the usual way.

So it doesn't subsume OpenID, for example.

In the ZDNet blog that Philipp cited, Garett Rogers writes:

"developers have access to store shared data right on Google’s servers"

Does anyone know what that means?

Garett Rogers [PersonRank 10]

Hey...
Basically they give you the ability to store anything per user, per instance, or per application... very powerful and can eliminate the need for your own local database.

I asked Google to comment and they sent along a statement ("There's a lot of innovation that will be spurred simply by creating a standard way for developers to run social applications in more places. With the input and iteration of the community, we hope OpenSocial will become a standard set of technologies for making the web social.") and the paper below:

Google will be making an announcement today. MySpace joins Orkut, Salesforce, LinkedIn, Ning, Hi5, Plaxo, Friendster, Viadeo and Oracle as announced Google partners. No word on whether MySpace will continue with efforts to complete its own recently announced platform, but the answer is probably yes. They are likely to simply do both.

<<OpenSocial just became serious competition to FB>>

Don't forget that OpenSocial is just an API, not a (new) social network.

Jared Cherup [PersonRank 10]

16 years ago #

It may be an API but a common API for several networks, and not just one which gives it some considerable leveraging power in my opinion.

Roger Browne [PersonRank 10]

16 years ago #

Facebook probably doesn't have a way to NOT join.

Even if they don't officially join, programmers will be sure to write an "adapter" layer to present the Facebook API as if it was the OpenSocial API.

On a separate issue, Oracle is apparently involved in this because they own Five Across who have a social media platform "Connect Community Builder". But it's hard to imagine Oracle as a company being successful in the Social Applications space.

jilm [PersonRank 10]

There is something profoundly bad in the OpenSocial idea. Instead of bringing the advantages of "social graph" to every internet app, every website, every service, it brings those apps into "containers". But why the hell I need them after all? What are social networks (MySpace, Facebook, Bebo...) without applications? Only social graphs. But there is only one social graph, right? So isn´t the model, when we have one app everywhere using different graphs just the exact opposite of what it should be? Wouldn´t be better to use one social graph to multiple apps? I´m deeply disappointed with that Google´s effort. It shows the victory of "containers" over the "web".

DPic [PersonRank 10]

socialstream.

Martin Porcheron [PersonRank 10]

16 years ago #

I think that the idea of OpenSocial is not to interfere with the networks as a whole but to act as a middle man allowing developers to create Apps that can be used everywhere easily. Obviously some Apps wont appeal to FB user but to hi5 users and vice versa.

Personally, I'm seeing OpenSocial more as a platform for developers and startups to leverage their business and entice a mass market adoption of their product. If it really is as easy as all the OpenSocial stories claim, then we will see a lot of new startups embracing the social networks to attract users.

From techcrunch's latest post http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/11/01/facebook-we-have-not-been-briefed-on-opensocial/

<<...suddenly Facebook is being painted as the closed outsider while everyone else is allowing the use of non proprietary coding platforms (Facebook requires the use of FBML, not HTML) and portability of applications.

How did they turn into the bad guys so quickly? As Erick says, it’s their move. But no matter what they do, Google has pulled off an absolute coup.

For their part, Google will certainly want Facebook’s participation. But they had to get everyone else on board first, before Facebook would even consider it. An open platform means no social network has any advantage over any other when it comes to third party applications. The playing field has been evened, and no one wins. Except Google. They always win>>

J. McNair [PersonRank 10]

16 years ago #

I happen to agree with a few of the other voices around the web that Google Accounts/AuthSub shouldn't be the only way to authenticate user data.

People should be allowed the choice NOT to use their Google Account or even not to HAVE a Google Account. They should allow people to use at the very least OpenID. If they're feeling REALLY nice, add in Amazon S3 and even Microsoft's Passport.

Mind, I'm a somewhat of a Google cheerleader and believe that for a capitalistic American corporation, they aren't *that* bad. I also know how easy it is to get and use a Google Account. Still, if they value users controlling their data, they should allow multiple security mechanisms as long as said mechanisms are secure and robust and don't lock you in.

My concerns are likely unfounded, though. The OpenSocial "coalition" is much more than Google, now, and may demand alternatives to Google Accounts. Sixapart may already be building OpenID into their implementation and readying it for the "1.0" version of the OpenSocial APIs. Google shouldn't be against this, as they did settle upon Jabber for Google Talk.

Of course, if Google became an OpenID provider...

Really? Google has always been quiet about alternate identity, authentication and trust mechanisms. If Google fully adopted OpenID across their services, they'd likely be the one of the largest OpenID providers and consumers on the planet.

On the other hand, I've heard it can be susceptible to phishing attacks (I have a link somewheres). Maybe they're waiting for a future revision to the standard...

> Agree to play by their rules and you get the chance to achieve more effective deployment, while adding to Google’s success as platform. Disagree, and your technology may not be able to get accepted in the market because Google is just too omnipresent.

It's similar to what I wrote here:
http://blogoscoped.com/forum/113252.html
Today there is little space for innovation outside of Google. And real innovation can't have limits, can it?

---

Anyway, one of the main points in the present thread is that some of us are excited by the fact that developers can write an app once and it will work for many different sites, but the rest of us thinks that what should be fixed is that still you have to go to many different sites to see what your friend did on the web. The latter problem was exposed by Brad:
http://bradfitz.com/social-graph-problem/
The first steps to solve this problem are FriendFeed, Socialstream, Plaxopulse.

Ok, these two things (i.e. OpenSocial and Socialstream) can surely be developed both, but I ask: which is more important to you?

(I know some of you already answered: jilm, Sam Davyson, GuillaumeB and Alberto seem to prefer Socialstream and similar to OpenSocial)

Now, if you reply "OpenSocial is more important", I ask you: why? what does it give to you as user?

And if you reply "Socialstream is more important", I ask: why, then, OpenSocial cause more buzz and excitement?

Only the "random cat photos" gadget worked (and random cats are not quite the, quote Google press release, unleashing of "more powerful and pervasive social capabilities for the web"). Why did Google release this when it was clearly not ready for prime time yet? Admittedly, I suppose many of these are 3rd party gadgets and bot by Google (I can't see author information in the directory Orkut Sandbox directory), but still, this is disappointing and there are only 5 apps to chose from in the first place.
