Facebook has continued to produce more APIs for their facebook playform. This time, they've produce a data store API. This API allows someone writing a facebook application to store data on the facebook servers.

This looks like more lock-in to me. I can't understand why someone would write a proprietary application for a someone elses platform. Now facebook wants you to store your data on their servers. Ya, it's cool to write a facebook application, but its not a long-term model for success.
