The Chirp was held last week, the conference for developers of Twitter and now it is the turn of the Facebook f8 event. Intervention by Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO and founder of the company has allowed to plans to socialize the Web Facebook .
No doubt, one of the major developments has been Open Graph presenting , which brings a new API that will allow Facebook to make available to web developers a succulent joint of new plugins.
A prime example of this technology are the new plugins that have arisen, such as Social Plugin, which lets you convert any web page on a Facebook page . Adding a button ‘I like’ (which replaced today ‘Become Fan’ on Facebook pages) and the necessary elements of Open Graph page will behave as a Facebook page, with the exception that will not be on Facebook .
Another plugin presented is that of Recommendations , which show, according to the tastes collected from the Facebook user profiles, a list of interesting content on the page you are visiting.
Activiy Stream show the activity across the network from our friends at Facebook. Finally, it seems that is also going to launch Facebook bar , so that the owners of the pages can add all these new features quickly and colorful for the user on their websites.
To make possible all these developments, apart from the API Open Graphs, developed by the team at FriendFeed, Facebook will adopt OAuth as the authentication system 2.0 and are going to modify the privacy policy , removing the prohibition had external applications to keep data on users for more than 24 hours.
As you can see,
Facebook’s new tools seek to globalize the social dimension of the network , increasing its growth, rather than the number of users, the number of information that can collect on them, both in the contents generated in the social network itself as in the existing Internet.
