A bit of history I *really* want to explore is the burst of APIs and ecosystems that hit the web around 2007, when the two big platform companies realized that our social graphs were valuable.

You got:

Facebook Platform
Open Social (Google)
Social Graph API (Google)
Open Graph/Graph API (Facebook)
Open Stream API (Facebook)

Each tell an interesting story and reveal just how bad these companies want a more centralized social graph for Netizens.
