It’s not about a new social network, instead this time Google is launching a platform that will provide programmatic access to various existing social networks like orkut, facebook and linkedin. Google’s OpenSocial provides a set of APIs that will let developers create social applications that work across multiple social networking websites (those that support the Opensocial APIs). All that a developer needs to know is JavaScript and HTML to create a social application.
