Late yesterday Steve Jobs – CEO of Apple.Inc invited Mark Zuckerberg – CEO of Facebook for a dinner at his residence. Normally when two big personalities meet for dinner, it’s usually more than Dinner & Personal talks. It’s business that dominates the talks between them. Same happened with both the CEO’s yesterday.

Earlier, when Ping – (A Social Network for Music) was launched; it has embedded Facebook’s Connect for logging in & sharing purposes. A few days back, Facebook blocked Ping’s connect integration.

So anyone could have a wild guess on what basis Steve Jobs invited Mark on Dinner. Maybe, in the future we could see better & advanced integration between the two Social Networks belonging to different sectors. Both the companies are big enough, so the deal won’t pass out smoothly enough.

Facebook is expanding itself day by day. No doubt it’s success has given Facebook a brand name. Recently, they signed a deal with Bing where in Bing would display Facebook widgets (The like button) and Facebook has already integrated Bing into it’s search page.
Did you miss Facebook’s integration in Ping now ??
