    Facebook never invited to OpenSocial party

    (Photo by {dpade1337})Know how when you don't get invited to a party you tell yourself how you have to keep telling yourself you are way too cool for that party, buddy, don't worry about those jerks. Who needs their fancy shoes and pretentious airs? So does chief Facebook flack Brandee Barker.

    Asked if Facebook was contacted by Google and invited to join its OpenSocial initiative, she reportedly said:

    Despite reports, Facebook has still not been briefed on OpenSocial. When we have had a chance to understand the technology, then Facebook will evaluate participation relative to the benefits to its 50 million users and 100,000 platform developers.
    Hear that? 50 million users. Sniff. 100,000 platform developers. Sniff. Leave Facebook alone!
