The recent Facebook rumors have come true -- the social networking company is making much of its third-party application development platform open source. The company announced the change one year after it launched Facebook Platform. "On the anniversary of our platform launch, we want to give back to the developer community. As Facebook Platform continues to mature, we've been hearing from a lot of you that you'd like more tools and better information on how Facebook Platform actually works," noted Facebook's Ami Vora on the Facebook Developers News blog.
