Facebook is the Most Accurate Social Graph
Following Google’s announcement Friday of the release of the Social Graph API, a number of experts have had time to voice their opinion. Tim O’Reilly, an apparent Google evangelist, believes that this new API brings us one step closer to “the Internet Operating System.” Others such as Jeff Jarvis, Dare Obasanjo and myself believe that this is good in theory but not very practical. Some could argue that eventually there will be tools that make it much more automated to define our connections between others on the web via hyperlinks.
Unfortunately (for Google), the majority of internet users will not switch to this new system when they have already become used to defining their connections via social networks by simply clicking “Add Friend.”
