Facebook an Online Social Networking site which started in 2004 in silicon valley by Mark Zuckerberg has acquired Parakey for an undisclosed sum on 20th July.Parakey an integration of the features of web and normal desktop Os is a platform for building feature rich applications.
Parakey was started by Firefox contributors Blake Ross and Joe Hewitt. Ross describes it as “a Web operating system that can do everything an OS can do.” The idea behind it is to make image, video, and writing transfer to the web easier. He explains that the current problem with transferring data to the web is that in order to move an image onto the web you first have to transfer pictures from your digital camera, then upload them to a place like Flickr and for writing documents u have to switch to blogger but parakey provides all this under one roof.
It seems facebook which is most sort after in silicon valley a successful venture has plans to capture the market of Google and want to give its users a whole lot of services.I want to tell u that this service is not started yet and will start soon.
As always share your feelings about this acquisition.
