Heh. I figured Facebook’s data portability “initiative” was nothing more than panicked lip service. Today they’ve banned Google Friend Connect from the Facebook API.
Here’s the funny part: they say it’s because Google Friend Connect “redistributes user information from Facebook to other developers without users’ knowledge.” Ha! Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!

One of the most annoying things about maintaining a social network profile is having to manually repost updates from that profile to other services you use. Most of these social networks just don’t want to share, doing everything they can to lock their users into their little information silos.
Just as I was tediously retyping a party invitation from Facebook to Google Calendar for the nth time, a ray of hope appeared.
