Model UN
Posted by goodmind on July 15th, 2008
Our new friend Anthony provides an excellent synopsis of the BrandHacker event we attended last night, a lively discussion of Google’s Open Social Foundation. This analogy captures Open Social (and the ethos of the attendees) perfectly;
The Open Social Foundation is like the UN of various social media properties like LinkedIn or MySpace (or, in open social speak, “containers”). It’s supposed to be a neutral entity that’s only concerned about the development of standards. They’ve built a standard language/platform that aims to be the Esperanto of social media application development.
