Yahoo oneConnect does social networking, messaging and apps

Yahoo! oneConnect looks like a very nice applicatin for aggregating a ton of your on-the-go needs, particularly if you are one for staying in contact, and messaging your best buds. There are a bunch of instant messenger services that are accessible through oneConnect, including Messgner, AIM, and Yahoo’s own, but also some other interesting sites/services like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Last.fm.

However, it would appear that both Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) and Facebook perhaps are not so happy with the way that oneConnect is aggregating their content feeds (or the fact they are even doing it) – interesting, because we are seeing more and more of this cross-pollination of services in different apps/websites, and obviously everyone wants to own the aggregrating user interface! Anyhow, you can read more about oneConnect on Yahoo!’s site here.
