It's not a surprise. Microsoft has at least been open lately. Take for instance their Live API's (which I've 'heard' were better to work with than Google's), SDK's, CodePlex, joining Dataportability.net and OpenID, FeedSync, WWT, Popfly and Silverlight platform, IE8 going to web standards platform, dev.live.com, Live Gallery Devcenter, and a lot of other things people would consider open.
And there probably will be a 2-way street. Probably each of those sites has a way of importing to the other, though I guess there could be exporting to others as well. It would still work the same way.
It's great to see the web more open. Much easier to move your info. I just hope all this "openness" that people are striving for, will be safe and secure enough to avoid bad guys from getting into our data. Being too open can be kind of a danger, right?
