More battle lines are drawn: Yahoo backs Google’s OpenSocial | |
|
||
| Time: 10:18 EST/15:18 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
|
On the same day Microsoft announced new interoperability deals with five social-networking sites, Yahoo announced it has joined the Google-backed OpenSocial social-networking intiative. Yahoo announced on March 25 that not only had it joined the OpenSocial group, but that — along with MySpace and Google — Yahoo also would create the not-for-profit OpenSocial Foundation “to ensure the neutrality and longevity of OpenSocial as an open, community-governed specification for building social applications across the Web.” | ||

I am sure that my age, 50, is a the cause but I could not care less for these so called "Social network".
Besides I do not want to put my personal information on the web. |

| #1: My wife & I were talking about this just the other day with us both feeling the same way as you do. MySpace and Facebook could drop off the planet and we'd never even notice. |

| #1: Thank you so much for using that expression properly: "I could not care less" vs "I could care less". |

#3: thanks for your comment. Btw I assume it was a "real" comment, not an ironic one.
I am saying this because I am Italian therefore English is not my native language and I am always interested to learn about any mistakes I could make. This post was edited by Fritzly on Wednesday, March 26, 2008 at 09:21. |

I was quite serious. Here is the States, we've developed the bad habit of saying "I could care less" when emphasizing that we really don't care about something. Probably just laziness that somehow managed to get a foothold. It is now quite pervasive, but it is very annoying and really makes no sense.
