MySpace Data Availability at Lunch 2.0
This afternoon, Fox Interactive Media invited the tech community to its new San Francisco headquarters for free food, and an opportunity to network.
Max Engel, product manager for the Data Availability project, spoke with me briefly about the new service.
Facebook did this a while ago, but MySpace has an advantage because they can use Google’s OpenSocial. The demo being shown was for Eventful.com, and users could import friends, photos, videos, and other data. I’m interested to see how this pans out. One thing for sure is that developers will be able to leverage the MySpace social graph and integrate the world’s largest social network into their site.
