Facebook announces plans to license its developer’s platform
Facebook faces massive competition from the market leader MySpace and other players in the market like Google (OpenSocial Platform) and Bebo.
The social networking service has now announced that they are now going to license its platform enabling third party developers to write applications for it to third party services.
This would now allow third party developers to code a single application which would work with several services with little modification.
With this, Facebook would have a rival platform to Google OpenSocial which provides a similar functionality to developers.
MySpace is already working with Google on the OpenSocial initiative. Bebo too has announced their own developer’s platform which is compatible with Facebook applications.
Popularity: 8%
