Recently, I wrote about Facebook (and social networking) interoperablility. I felt there was a core feature missing from facebook- a user’s social networking data/activity/etc needed to be imported into facebook. Well, it looks like they have made a small step towards “data interoperability”. I still wish they would support RSS as an import standard, but you can’t ask for everything!

For now, the feature is severely limited- you are limited to Yelp, Picasa, Digg, delicious, and Flickr. Some may say these types of features cut into the core business of the likes of friendfeed or SocialThing! – but facebook has a long way to go before they are offering data fluidity to that extent.

P.S. What is with the hold-up on facebook chat? When are we supposed to launch this thing?
