On February 5, MySpace will open its system to developers so that they have the ability to begin building applications (similar to Facebook applications). MySpace intends to offer advertisement-revenue sharing to developers while avoiding the feed/request pollution that Facebook has.
MySpace will be supporting OpenSocial which is a collection of API’s for developers to create applications that run on multiple social websites. The theory is that with OpenSocial a developer can make one application that interacts with different sites (like MySpace, imeem, Plaxo, etc.). So now instead of asking one group of contacts if they want to take your “how funny are you?” quiz, you can ask all of your contacts!
If you want to write apps for MySpace, you can pre-register on their developer site now.
