Google launches open APIs for social networks
Cory Bergman October 31st, 2007
As teased earlier, Google has just announced a way for developers to build social applications that span more than one social network. It’s called OpenSocial, but it doesn’t work on Facebook or MySpace… yet. So what’s left? Orkut, LinkedIn, hi5, iLike, Slide, Ning, Friendster, and Plaxo.
Oh yeah, and Google’s stock hit $700 today, up 52 percent for the year so far.

$700.
Yeah, internet stocks were overvalued like that a few years back.
Just ask that guy living under the bridge downtown what happened next.

I’ve got a remedial grasp of the stock market at best, so could someone tell me how on earth has this stock not split?

i’ve been looking for a split for the last $200 of this run.
now i’m thinking they’ll just buy a network or two.

tlac… I hear NBCU might be up for sale next Fall. Of course, what would that do to the writing on 30 Rock?
