Facebook now requires developers to prove their own applications "reciprocity" means that the application must allow users to easily publish content on Facebook, you can use Facebook's Find Friends feature. Previously, Facebook suddenly disabled Twitter's new video sharing application Vine and Russian search giant Yandex social search application Wonder. In the past few years, Facebook has been in the network and mobile device application developers are encouraged to Facebook as the default login entrance and find friends, this is the site on which became ubiquitous in the main strategy.
However, Facebook has several times with competitors such as Google (microblogging ) and Twitter clash that those the opponents reason why you want to connect to the Facebook service with, in order to try to build competitive Facebook expense of social networking.
Facebook the Facebook developer rules is: competitive social network: (a) has not been the case we allow, you can not use the Facebook platform to a competitive social network output user data; (b) Facebook The application can not be integrated, and connected to, promote, distribute, or redirect to any application on any other competing social networks. "
New developer rules: "mutual and replicate the core functionality: (a) reciprocity: Facebook platform allows Facebook Graph API (graphics application programming interface) and associated application programming interface to build personalized, social experience. you use any Facebook applications interface to build a personalized social experience, then you must also allow users to easily share its experience with other users on Facebook; (b) the copy core functionality: you can not use the Facebook platform to promote, or output the user data to a product or service, provided that the the unauthorized copying Facebook a core product or service. "
Content sharing "reciprocity" provisions on the prohibition of the replication Facebook service the fixed is new, but close match, which made changes aimed at combating primarily as a client with a controversial change Twitter made last year to read and post Twitter messages. However, in the end developer what would constitute a "copy" behavior, and how easy it is for users to share content must be done to make the right decision looks on Facebook in the hands.
Twitter's new video applications Vine allows users to easily share content in the form of a link and preview pictures, but Facebook's photo-sharing application Instagram, Instagram photos directly into the Facebook user data, Vine does not publish on Facebook video. This reflects the limited Instagram interact with Twitter: Instagram is no longer displayed on the Twitter website or mobile application photos, but forcing the user to click into Instagram website to see the photos.
Facebook allows Twitter users to cross-post updates from Twitter to Facebook, LinkedIn users can no longer professional networking site cross-Twitter news release update. Facebook allows Google's YouTube and Yahoo 's Flickr to share photos and video at the same time using the Find Friends feature; Twitter also allows Flickr users to find Twitter friends, but Instagram users can not.
In the end, the hapless consumers, because they have to great pains to re-build their own new services enough to threaten to Twitter or Facebook friends list.
Facebook spokesman has not yet responded.
