Seems like a fairly common strategy these days.

1) Build an API so other developers can innovate features

2) Cut off access to popular features made by other developers

3) Clone said features from step 2

Maybe their should be a type of license regarding the use of the API that we should all look for? I feel the same way and am reticent to build anything for twitter or facebook...
