These both gave me some pause. I'm not entirely sure what I think, yet - because, truth be told, all of that online data I talked about is also in pretty closed proprietary platforms, so if I were really religious about openness, I might actually not end up using any of them. Which may or may not, be a good thing. I'm not sure. For me, even though I use some of the social networking platforms, I'm still not utterly convinced of their usefulness - and I know they aren't really open.
