The giant in a searching system, Google, enhances position in social network . Google, as one of the innovators and strong competitors on world wide market, launches OpenSocial, a new open API for social network system. It consists of three parts: people, storage, and activity stream. The purpose of it is to allow developers to create applications for different social networks.
The main comport Google’s OpenSocial provides, as the name "OpenSocial" says already, in difference to Facebook, is that the developers have opportunities to write apps in HTML or javascript rather than in some new programming language. At the same time, the apps are meant to be portable and the system is designed for maximum flexibility.
Open nature of the system makes us come to the conclusion that OpenSocial System will not be a new network in a number of networks (Orkut, LinkedIn, Plaxo) but It is expected to be a new paradigm for the social web.
