Google's initial instinct was to disrupt Facebook with an open source play called Opensocial.
Then someone at Google decided it would be better to compete with Facebook, and now we have G+, and Google has gained a major competitor.
I wonder what would have happened if Google had kept iterating on an open stack. What are the leading open social stacks these days?
