Who's Blogging  |
2:15 PM: Launch partners are now coming on stage. First up is Digg by Joe Stump.
2:13 PM: Facebook Connect can show you which of your Facebook friends are also on the outside service, so you can link up with them there too. They are also allowing people to leave comments and requests on third party sites.
2:12 PM: Facebook Connect will let applications share data with Facebook. Users can bring Facebook friends with them to outside sites.
2:11 PM: Mark is now talking about Facebook Connect.
2:10 PM: He says he wants Facebook to be the platform and tools provider, but let apps do anything social they want.
2:08 PM: Mark says we are going to see the decentralization of social networking into apps on the web. Things will decentralize further, apps can run anywhere on the web, not just on social network platforms. They will all work together, just be decentralized.
2:05 PM: People (including us) are writing wall posts for Mark since he has his profile live on stage, but it looks like he's actually using a fake profile, it shows just 8 friends.
2:03 PM: Mark is now showing a live demo of the new home page.
