The Burrito King

There has been a lot of buzz in the last couple weeks about some new tools from Facebook, My Space and Google. While there are differences between their services, MySpace is more of anopen environment (possible integrating with Google Friend Connect while Facebook Connect will be more central to Facebook.  For more detail check out some of the following article from Mashables:

Some also have started to argue that a larger piece of the puzzle is the battle for demograhpics online and the extra traffic that will benefit the sites that integrate with them.

While this all starts to work itself out there will be some great benefits to sites to integrate with them to drive traffic and syndicate content and great benefit to FB, MS and Google from behavioral data on their users and potential marketing opportunity for brands.

I wonder how the adoption rate will be by users. In the past many have been worried about privacy issues and this may be no different. Only time will tell. Can’t wait.
