MySpace Open Platform
MySpace has announced the development of a single sign on service, which apparently follows on the heels of similar programs that were created by Google and Facebook (so why is this the first time I’ve heard about it…?? hmmm), which were launched last week.
The service allows users to easily sign onto third party sites via the MySpace platform, and includes partners such as: Vodafone, Netvibes, AOL, Flock, Eventful, Flixster, and Yoono… not to mention the fact that this effort also supports Google’s Friend Connect.
I don’t know about you, but I rarely log onto MySpace anymore let alone use it as a platform to log onto other sites. Can’t say that I would want to use the platforms that have been designed by Google and Facebook either, but I would be happy to see y’all prove me wrong.
