Following on the Open Social support of the MySpace Developer Platform, Google has launched services for programmers planning to use Open Social to build applications for its Orkut social network, including a hackathon scheduled for Feb. 14-15 at Google headquarters in Mountain View, Calif., as well as forums and chat. End users should be able to check out the results of all this openness on MySpace in early March and on Orkut later this month.
