In the meantime, I would be interested to see a higher level application that could accept Social Networking inputs, format them on the back-end and provide a very open API to developers to develop methods of working with the data.
We've seen interesting things that are possible: word clouds, link parsers to pull news/pictures out of Twitter feeds, automatic translation between languages. But never in one interface, mostly because nobody has ever created one... similar to how we saw all kinds of cool widgets for cellphones until Apple/Google created the underlying OS and made it accessible for everybody. I think we need something similar for the social side of things.
