ELSEWHERE AT CYNOPSIS ... CYNOPSIS DIGITAL - TODAY'S TOP STORY: The big social networking players have turned their attention toward a long-standing problem on the net usually referred to as data portability. MySpace was the first to announce a new set of tools that store all the usual profile info sites ask for then automatically transfer it to new sites you sign up for. A central, updateable interface will automatically share public profile data with Yahoo, eBay, Photobucket and Twitter. Not to be outdone, Facebook announced Facebook Connect, enabling third party sites like Digg to connect to user profiles, friends, photos, events etc. Participating web sites will also be able to allow users to log in and create accounts using their Facebook names and passwords. Full edition: CYN DIGITAL. (Or to listen to the Cynopsis Digital Podcast click here or subscribe to it at iTunes here .) CYNOPSIS KIDS - TODAY'S TOP STORY: "Hey You Guyyyys!" Sesame Workshop begins production in New York City this month on the new version of the K6-9 aimed reading readiness TV series, The Electric Company. The original incarnation of the series ran on Public Television stations in the 1970s. Still one of my favorite TV shows from when I was a kid. Full edition: CYN KIDS.
