I just love this. Xoopit, a Firefox-plugin integrated with Facebook Connect has just brought social context into Email. Ever since I became a Facebook user I have been thinking about how cool it would be to bring the social graph into my Email.  Email is still the main platform through which people communicate on the Internet and so surfacing social context into email – just made email so much more social,exciting and useful.

Xoopit has obviously integrated Facebook Connect and is plugging into Gmail through Firefox, BUT if you are an ISP or an web-mail provider – you can do this yourself without the need of a plugin or the support from Facebook. I’m really excited to see this innovative integration of Facebook Connect via a plugin into mail, but there is so much more an webmail provider can do by integrating Facebook Connect directly.

I would love to see Facebook Connect integrated into leading local webmail services around the globe and make email more social.

At these Garages we can listen and learn firsthand how we can continue to make Facebook Platform even better, and how together we can continue to make the Web more social.

Israeli Developers

The timing of the Garage was perfect since Nana10.co.il, one of the leading Israeli portals, just launched their Facebook Connect integration. I was excited to share some details on many of the programs we announced and launched in the last few months including Facebook Connect, winners of our fbFund competition, our Application Verification Program, and our new partnership with Salesforce. We were also thrilled to have leading entrepreneurs Eyal Magen of Gigya and Alon Carmel of Devunity speak about their products and integrations with Facebook and the social Web.

The excitement and the enthusiasm for Facebook Platform was phenomenal, with over 200 developers, entrepreneurs, and local media professionals attending the event.

For me, this was a great opportunity to connect with Israeli developers and to be able to give something back to my homeland and the Israeli Internet community. Israel might be a small country, but Israeli developers and entrepreneurs are everywhere. Rumor has it another Facebook Developer Garage Israel is already in the works. We hope to see you at the next one!

Special thanks to Alon Carmel from Devunity, Yaron Orenstein from the Co.il’s, Orly Yakuel and Benchmark Capital’s Michael Eisenberg for making this Garage possible.

  • Google
  • Yahoo
  • YouTube
  • MySpace
  • Facebook
  • Digg
  • Microsoft
  • Apple
  • News Corp
  • Any newly launched services already discussed else where in BlogLand

The reason for this is that I am getting so tired so read the same old story over and over again all over the blogoshpere. Really. How interesting is it to read that Google launched a new service 50 times the same day? Or about which company will acquire Facebook. Vista this and Vista that. Zune here and Ipod there. Alexa this and Digg that? Put a couple of these companies to John Lennon’s "Give Peace A Chance" and you”ll get the spirit in which I am writing this ;)

Although I do not believe in New Year resolutions (I’m Jewish) I will try to be more selective about what I am writing from now on, less clutter and try to be more original rather that mirroring all the noise out there.

Disclaimer. I will only write about any of the above if the have anything directly to do with my business or changed something dramatically in my or other peoples life…

Digg it?
