OpenSocial was great in theory, but in practice it was awful. At launch, it had a fraction of the features of the FB platform, was much more complicated to build for, and its behavior was not actually consistent across all the social networks that implemented it. I joined a startup that was building for both FB and OpenSocial and as soon as we had a successful Facebook game we ditched all thirty-something OpenSocial widgets.
