In a move echoing one made by rival Facebook earlier this year, MySpace plans to open its platform to third-party application developers.

It will also allow developers to monetize their applications, MySpace cofounder and CEO Chris DeWolfe reportedly said at O’Reilly Media’s Web 2.0 conference in San Francisco on Wednesday.
