Racing to Web3.0

Joe Marchese of SocialVibe wrote his latest entry via Mediapost regarding MySpace, Facebook and Google racing to Web3.0.

It is clear that things are bubbling up and I have been preaching about social aggregation for years now...Its not a matter of whether "MySpace and Facebook play nice" its a matter of what users want. The nice part about web3.0 ubiquity is that neither "MySpace or Facebook have to win" one over the other. Those sites are there to serve the users and their need to connect- sure there is overlap but at the end of the day there are very clear user experiences that set them apart.

I for one would love to have the convenience of signing up to all the new sites (Although I'm not a big fan of Myspace) that interest me on Mashable posts which seems to be about 1 new site every 5 minutes but simply for the purpose of profile casting and search engine optimization as a social media practitioner.

FriendConnect is going to do what ClaimID has tried to do over the last couple of years and quite frankly what I originally wanted for SocialURL from the beginning.
