Google’s social graph API
Written on February 1, 2008 – 7:38 pm | by admin
Google has released a new API that will allow developers to create applications that take advantage of a person’s WWW social graph. The social graph will be provided by Google who already crawls every page on the Web and extracts relationship information specified using the XFN and FOAM protocols. This could be a very useful tool for anyone who wants access to a social graph and doesn’t want to deal with companies such as Facebook and MySpace (when they release their API, that is.) The following video gives a brief introduction to Google’s social graph API.
