&lt;p class="MsoPlainText"&gt;I wanted to take a brief moment to introduce
myself.&amp;nbsp; I’m the new product manager for Data Availability, and you all
have no idea how excited I am to be at MySpace getting the chance to spend my
time working towards enabling a more social web.&amp;nbsp; Before this I was
at Yahoo!, first on the games team helping build our community tools for
developers and players.&amp;nbsp; I later worked on the “Yahoo! Open Strategy” as a
product manager for our application platform and OpenSocial
implementation.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p class="MsoPlainText"&gt;You’ll find me a fan of all things open.&amp;nbsp; Don’t get
me started on my love of OAuth, OpenID, XFN, FOAF, microformats, etc.&amp;nbsp; In
all honest geekery, thinking about what we can do to transform online identity
by embracing a philosophy of openness literally keeps me up at night.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p class="MsoPlainText"&gt;I&amp;#39;m thrilled to be diving right in and getting to work
with smart, creative, and passionate people on the Data Availability project.&amp;nbsp; We
have some really exciting things coming down the pipes, and I think you’ll be
delighted by what you see.&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;p class="MsoPlainText"&gt;Cheers!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoPlainText"&gt;Max Engel aka 8BitKid&lt;/p&gt;
