Kottke: Facebook is the new AOL

I’ve had many conversations discussing the merits of the Facebook platform, and what it means for the developers and users of the internet. Kottke, as usual, throws some great insight into the discussion.

There’s another point that I take from this piece: Comparisons to AOL lead to a company that falls mightily from the top of the internet mountain.

It's interesting how facebook got so big having private content and all.

Have you played with the facebook api much yet with django?

Any plans with The University Daily Kansan?

I'm actually playing with Django and the Facebook Platform as we speak. Early impression: I'm a fan.

The Kansan might happen to be related to my tinkering...

More to come on that later.
