Yahoo Potentially Joining OpenSocial
Erick Schonfeld is reporting that Yahoo may be joining OpenSocial. While I don’t think that this is a deal breaker for Microsoft acquiring Yahoo, this would be a massive step in the process of Google attempting to “out open” Facebook.

OpenSocial is Google’s answer to making social a service for the whole web. There is no sign of how this will all pan out because none of the social networks that have become OpenSocial partners have officially launched yet.
