Does the idea of developing a white label version of the Facebook Platform sound appealing?

Are you capable of developing a docking system that would easily give an embedded web application access to the host website’s resources?

If so we’d like to hear from you. Your role will be to develop simple, lightweight ways in which one web application can dock with another application and interface with the host’s authentication, billing and messaging systems.
