Does this help?

On wiki-page:

Purpose: What social networking services implement which technology,
like OpenID, OAuth, OpenMicroBlogging, OpenSocial, FOAF, etc. Is there
any open-source software that runs these sites? What is the policy and
privacy settings for each service? Do they allow use of context, and
