So Google is thought of by most people to be a search company. But it’s actually an information company.
Even still, there’s no reason why Google shouldn’t do more to enhance its information products with social information, helping to make more information that’s relevance, timely, and useful available to everyone.

but there’s still a question about what this should really look like. And a question about the right way for Google to get involved with and help advance the social web.

but in fact, there’s a much broader social story at Google — it just hasn’t revealed itself with the same degree of obviousness that we see elsewhere in the industry.
In fact it’s important to keep in mind that Google’s original algorithm, called PageRank is Google’s original “social web” product. How so?
“PageRank can be thought of as a model of user behavior.”
Sergey Brin and Larry Page, 1998
Well, in the original academic paper that described PageRank, Larry and Sergey said that PageRank “can be thought of as a model of user behavior.”
At the time, the user model that they were describing was that of a user following links from one site to another — the “follow your nose” model of the “web of links”. From this kind of user behavior, the algorithm for PageRank was derived (click).
While that model has changed over time, the basic premise that links indicate a social signals remains relevant.

The signals that were once embedded in static HTML pages that could be crawled at one’s leisure are now predominantly being shared in social streams. And more importantly, the make up of social streams differs per person — which leads to an incredible opportunity to improve personalization and the relevance of search results.

and so google can use those signals to personalize your search results, as they do with the social circle feature.

which brings us to Buzz, Google’s latest baby entry into the social web.
This is what Buzz looks like in Gmail, in case you haven’t seen it.
it also gives you a nice way to interact with media right from within buzz.

Google Buzz and the social web
“ The best way to get a sense of where the Buzz API is heading is to take a look at http://code.google.com/apis/buzz/. You'll notice that the “coming soon” section mentions a ton of protocols—Activity Streams, Atom, AtomPub, MediaRSS, WebFinger, PubSubHubbub, Salmon, OAuth, XFN, etc.

“ What it doesn't talk much about is Google. That's because the goal isn't Google specific at all. The idea is that someday, any host on the web should be able to implement these open protocols and send messages back and forth in real time with users from any network, without any one company in the middle.

This is really important. The goal of Google Buzz, while on the one hand is create an excellent social experience on the web, is also to adopt and make use of technologies that expand the size and participation on the social web.

the goal is for there to be many different players on the open web, providing choice for people, and competing to offer the best services around.
And this isn’t just for the bigger or more popular services. The goal is for a much larger, more interconnected social web to grow larger.

The web is better when it’s social
The web is better when it’s social.
And that means that we want to make sure that every page and site on the web can offer social functionality, and compelling social experiences.
What do I mean by social?
it’s about enabling new verbs on the web... verbs like follow, share, discuss, comment, mention, like, rate,

I’ve seen similar signs all over the Mission, where I live.

Identity & Profile OpenID
Photo by Teresa Stanton
OpenID is like a personal skeleton key for all your web accounts.
By using an account that you already have to sign up for another website, not only is it more convenient, but you are able to start developing your own universal web identity — that, if you CHOOSE TO, you can own.
Why is OpenID important?
* People use different identities for different purposes* Ultimately choice and competition is a good thing to foster in this early landscape.* With greater diversity of providers, publishers may see the potential for wider distribution of shareable content.* Digital identity is in its infancy now; the final chapter has not yet been written.

Now, unfortunately this is what OpenID often looks like today.
when people really just want this.
their goal is to get access to their account
To be fair, this is merely an uncomfortable transitional step along a much longer path towards open identity on the web. it is a means to an end, but not the end that we seek.

so this interface — with all these buttons, is what we call the “NASCAR”, which is named after the cars in the popular american racing sport.
Photo by Timothy Vogel
the result is what we call the “OpenID NASCAR” where everyone wants their brand shown on login forms....
But it’s this way for an important reason. People want — and exercise — choice when logging in.
Contextual identity
And as more relying parties come online, it’s increasing important that there is choice in identity providers.
For example, the OpenID that you might want to use to sign in to Basecamp may be different from the one that you want to use to sign in to Lady Gaga’s website.
And that idea proves out in case after case.

Making OpenID easier
one of the challenges of OpenID has been figuring out how to make OpenID easier.
One of the biggest challenges is helping people to know what their OpenID is and to remember it.

turns out that email addresses seem to be much more universal and memorable than an “OpenID”, and so the OpenID community has been working on ways to make it possible to use an email address as a way to bootstrap the OpenID authentication process. (more on that later)

Well, the obvious thing is import my address book and see which of my friends is already on the site...
However, the last thing that you want to do is ask for a user’s password. That’s information that should only be shared between the user and their provider.
Fortunately, there’s an alternative that’s gaining widespread adoption.

Think of OAuth like your valet key for the web.
On the desktop
let’s take a look at how OAuth works on the desktop using the Yammer Adobe Air app.
when you launch the app for the first time, you’ll be asked to authorize access to your data.
the app will launch a page like this in your browser and you click authorize.

next you’re given a special code to prevent what’s called “session fixation attack”.
return to the app and enter the code
and now you’ve granted access to the desktop app without needing to provide your password.
On the web
Friendfeed

Now I’m signed in, and my contacts have already been brought in with a simple click.
Very simple, especially if I’m already signed in to my Google account.

If we grant access, Safari fades out, bringing the app back into focus.
and voila, with OAuth, FlightTrackPro now has access to our trips.
Since FlightTrack Pro isn’t owned by TripIt, I never had to give my password to FlightTrack Pro.

1999
RSS 0.9 was introduced in 1999 by Netscape as a content-gathering mechanism for My Netscape Network (MNN) back when portals were all the rage (pre-social networks).
By providing a simple snapshot-in-a-document, web site producers acquired audience through the presence of their content on My Netscape.
so, you’d have someone like the NYTimes wanting to grow their online audience...
...and they’d use RSS to get their content into the Netscape portal.

RSS looks like this.
RSS
title + link + description
the only mandatory fields in RSS are title, link, and description — which makes it an extremely flexible format. The only problem is that aggregators have to do a lot of guesswork about what’s in it.
this was complicated by the various flavors of RSS (0.9, 0.91, 0.92, 0.93, 2.0 et al)
2005
this in 2005, a group of people got together to create a “better specified” syndication format called Atom.
