Yahoo! has officially joined OpenSocial the Google-led app platform/would-be Facebook killer. The idea is that Google (GOOG), Yahoo (YHOO), MySpace (NWS), Bebo (TWX) et al allow developers to create apps that work across all of their networks -- and give them an incentive to build for their networks instead of Facebook's dominant one.
