Perhaps the developers of the apps will jump on the opportunity and create applications that do communicate cross platform, but I don't see the big providers wanting/helping out with that one. @Naveen :

You may be interested to know that we have a roadmap: http://wiki.dataportability.org/x/OQER and a new business models initiative which over the next month will pick up steam: http://wiki.dataportability.org/x/8gUR and there are multiple ways of how you can make money still - it just involves us thinking about things differently. Just take a look into the VRM project (vendor relationship management), which is a fundamentally new way to think about advertising. Hi Lyn,
