From a data science perspective, I find social media data fascinating, though from an ethical perspective it's kind of shades of grey I think. Facebook having an API like Twitter would be really interesting

You can only get access if you're a media company

That site has tools for creating Facebook games and such! No public API like twitter where you can get posts/info about users! I know this because I used to do that professionally!

Well Iโ€™ll admit that I didnโ€™t really look at that site. I guess Facebook doesnโ€™t want to share all the data it collects on people.

Google Play Music/YouTube Music. I feel like discovering new stuff in both apps is really hard.
