So, for Lent, from February 22, through April 8th, I won't be: Reading or posting on Facebook. Reading RSS feeds or Google News. And I'll still be cooking, so maybe, if you're in the Bay Area, instead of "liking" a Facebook post, you'll come by for soup. :-). Blogging or reading Blogs. no Rachel Maddow, sniff, sniff).

OpenSocial is a set of APIs that handle three different kinds of user data: profiles, social graph (who your friends are) and activities (the stuff of the Facebook news feeds.) Facebook has quite the motivation to keep people on Facebook, and keep the eyeballs there, because of their revenue model, which is ad-based.

Rapleaf digs into the usual social networking sites (Facebook, MySpace, etc.), It is an inevitable result of our desire for social networks, as well as our desire for information to be portable (like in RSS feeds.)
