			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>MySpace has been lagging in the social networking process lately, but they just opened their <del>eyes</del> platform.  <a href="http://www.searchenginejournal.com/myspace-opening-platform-to-external-developers-googles-interest/5845/">Loren writes</a> about the <a href="http://www.macworld.com/news/2007/10/18/myspace/index.php">Macworld announcement</a> made today, that MySpace will be opening up its platform just as Facebook already has.</p>
<p>A source close to <a href="http://www.userplane.com/">Userplane</a> mentioned that they have been in talks with MySpace for the past couple weeks.  MySpace has been suffering largely because they didn&#8217;t know how to scale their platform for the flood of users that joined MySpace.</p>
<p>Facebook has taken the higher road by creating standards within their platform while MySpace has, well, not.  MySpace has become a community known for teens and the immature while Facebook initially took off just for college students.</p>
<p>Facebook opened to the world and now they opened up the flood gates for marketing, advertising, diversity, creativity, and ultimately a platform for anyone to use.</p>
<h4>Userplane Services</h4>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.userplane.com/webchat">Userplane Webchat 2</a> &#8211; delivers full-featured, text/voice/video multi-user chatting.</li>
<li><a href="http://www.userplane.com/webmessenger">Userplane Webmessenger 2</a> &#8211; provides live text/voice/video instant messaging.</li>
<li><a href="http://www.userplane.com/webrecorder">Userplane Webrecorder</a> &#8211; enables users to record and share voice/video messages.</li>
<li><a href="http://www.userplane.com/desktop">Userplane Desktop</a> &#8211; turns the lights on with web and desktop-based live user presence.</li>
<li><a href="http://www.userplane.com/feeds">Userplane Feeds</a> &#8211; adds features and functionality via free content API’s.</li>
</ul>
<p>Userplane has some great services that allow for other sites to integrate directly into Userplane products with ease.  They have a bright future.</p>
<p>MySpace is in talks with Userplane to launch some sort of integration beyond their typical service.</p>
