MySpace Shares Public Profile Data to Select Websites
Just curious, but do you think even though they are competitors, the top guns at MySpace, Facebook and Google spend all their time on Gmail chatting about when and how theyll release the news of their latest endeavors to move towards data portability?
Or maybe they have spies in each others camps sending smoke signals home at night spilling the beans of latest plans to take over your data profile? Flashbacks to Pinky and Brain cartoons spill over into my daytime routine.
In either case, its been a busy couple of weeks with Facebook announcing Facebook Connect, then last night Google previewed Friend Connect. Now we read all about MySpaces Data Availability initiative not to be confused with Data Portability which allows MySpace members to share their public profile with websites of their choice.
Is this the year of the User Identity Battle?
