BBC and Social Networking

The German poet Heinrich Heine stated once that everything in The Netherlands happened 50 years afterwards. I think I need to wait for 50 years if I want to hear a radio programme about social networking like http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/news/inbusiness/inbusiness.shtml

Open social

Plaxo is offering under the application link, open social functionality. But according to Plaxo is this only early beta code that may break. Open-Social is currently at version 0.5 and will be changing a lot in the coming weeks. Use only if you want to experiment with the bleeding egde of the Open Social Web. :)

I am not a coder and will not compile my own open social applications. According to http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial/ there are many websites implementing OpenSocial, including Engage.com, Friendster, hi5, Hyves, imeem, LinkedIn, MySpace, Ning, Oracle, orkut, Plaxo, Salesforce.com, Six Apart, Tianji, Viadeo, and XING.

I am waiting. Will open social be vaporware or are there already solutions available?
