That makes sense since companies like AT&T, Verizon, Microsoft and TJX take the extra time to protect your data and would never sell it to anyone. I'd rather google than most other companies who try to squeeze money from you in every sneaky way they can.
Some more thoughts... Very interesting indeed. User data, social graph and activities.- All Google needs to do is use their Gmail address list and tap into the $20M, 5% AOL stake and integrate with AOL IM’s buddy list to have the world’s largest social graph.- Now if Google could allow developers to tap into the API’s and embed social data on any website, there would be no walls, the entire web would be a social network….which it is already. (ie alert all your friends that this blog is a good read…which I already did via emailing them)- So in the end, I guess we learn that openness always prevails.... WE LOVE YOU GOOGLE, this is what we expect from you, you have always taken the right, wise, and ethical step.
The facebook platform as it stands today seems to be fairly stable with plenty of features to make it easy enough for users to create their own apps on FB. People are already talking how this will be the "facebook killer". I'm betting that this is something that they have wanted. If this takes off, what harm will be be for FB to adopt some of the standards or release the Facebook API 2.0, that will let people use this and include the Facebook only stuff too. I don't think this is a facebook killer, it's got the potential to be a Facebook extender.

At least they know a thing or two about security/privacy. Facebook has shown it knows NOTHING:<a class="user" href="http://valleywag.com/tech/facebook/facebook-could-face-legal-trouble-over-snooping-316960.php">http://valleywag.com/tech/facebook/facebook-could- ...</a><a class="user" href="http://valleywag.com/tech/scoop/facebook-employees-know-what-profiles-you-look-at-315901.php">http://valleywag.com/tech/scoop/facebook-employees ...</a>
