===MySpace Developer Platform (MDP)===
On February 5, 2008, MySpace set up a developer platform allowing developers to share their ideas and write their own Myspace applications. The opening was inaugurated with a workshop at the MySpace offices in San Francisco two weeks before the official launch. The MDP is based on the OpenSocial API, which was presented by Google in November 2007 to support social networks to develop social and interacting widgets, and can be seen as an answer to Facebook's developer platform. The first public beta of the MySpace Apps was released on March 5, 2008, with around 1,000 applications available.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://developer.myspace.com/Community/blogs/devteam/archive/2008/02/05/let-me-see-my-app.aspx|title=Let me see my app!|work=MySpace MDP|date=February 5, 2008|access-date=February 5, 2008|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080209102606/http://developer.myspace.com/Community/blogs/devteam/archive/2008/02/05/let-me-see-my-app.aspx|archive-date=February 9, 2008}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.all4myspace.com/news/2008/1 |title=MySpace Open to Developers |work=MySpace News |date=February 5, 2008 |access-date=February 5, 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080114035153/http://www.all4myspace.com/news/2008/1 |archive-date=January 14, 2008 }}</ref>
