Some of you (listen to me talking like multiple people are reading this…) might recall a post of mine from not too long ago bemoaning Facebook and its inward looking view of its own spectacular Web 2.0 software. Well, I’m happy to report – I’ve done it!!!
Facebook announced yesterday, along with its proud partners, that they will be unveiling some 70 technology partners including favourites such as Photobucket, Hot or Not and Twitter. Also included in the group to have the first chance to really dig into the social networking site’s API and integrate include heavy hitters like Microsoft and Virgin Mobile.
Now while some of you may claim that the time to create these partnerships and actually develop the software that the ‘book is beginning to unveil today may have taken months. I however, am burying my head in the sand to this conventional wisdom and declaring this a small victory for nitch.ca!
So three cheers for Facebook – it’s great to know you’re listening…
