Widgetocracy

Last week was all about Google’s Open Social announcement, grouping together MySpace, LinkedIn and other social networking sites to create a common developer environment and put the virtual squeeze on Facesoft to join the party and create a true widegetocracy.

Ah, heaven, develop a killer widget, no need to develop on various disparate platforms, just a one size fits all wrapper enabling people to share the goodness of the widget with everyone, who… well… anyone who is on a social network and with the launch of a silver surfers network by Saga (them of the Club 55-80 holidays) that includes your Bad Uncle Bobby and his new wife Patty with the implants.

Now all we need is some real innovation in the widget sphere, like a widgetzine, filtered content from around the web.
