Musestorm is the Widget Based Engagement Platform, what i called a complete Widget Agency. they had been quiet but it looks like they were hard at work in their platform and today, they have decided to announce the update...We could see this as the culmination of what i have been talking about as the end to meet all solution in term of widgets, and the recent surge of interest in widget based marketing, Musestorm is now going to compete with not only Gigya but also other main Widget Developing companies selecting Bebo Support as the perfect way to demo what they got new in their platform.

Why Bebo?, while i understand that Bebo provides a great app platform that got momentum right now, i still find curious why Bebo. one of the reasons i can think of is the way Bebo controls and run their platform. having a more relaxed model than Facebook or MySpace and yet with a superior platform compared with Friendster, Hi5 and Netlog.

There could be another reason. maybe AOL is in the hunt for a way to bridge their buy of Bebo and they buy of YourMinis with Musestorm?. would be a perfect choice but lets not read too much into this yet. even then, MuseStorm “cross-platform updating” sounds as their own way to do what OpenSocial was supposed to do.

The best bit is about the easy creating of widgets and widget-apps for bebo and mentioning it is as easy as creating a powerpoint presentation could suggest a special editor yet to be seen. like sprout but even more advanced and with the added value of engament tracking and instant deployment.

Too many questions, i will check if i can send some questions to Musestorm and get more answers on what seems to be a breaking point in widget development, by joining marketing, engagement tracking and deployment all into one.

Thanks for Krista at Musestorm for the heads up.
