I really don't understand what Facebook means by 'social networking platform.'

Do they just mean one can take Facebook data (using their published APIs) into an external application and display it in a mashup (e.g., geomapping of my social network of friends)? This is somewhat akin to a real-time export/import (a synced up export/import).

Or, do they mean I can get Facebook users to use an external application using APIs (a la software developers getting their applications to run on a Windows desktop) from within Facebook, thus enhancing Facebook functionality?

To my mind the latter is more powerful. I am not sure if Facebook lets you do this. Any insights?
