    Hi,

    Anyone using Google Friend Connect? And how does it compare to Facebook connect?

    I placed GFC on my site, NeighborAide and I am considering placing Facebook connect on the site too.

    You got to make Google Account to be able to use Google Friend Connect. I use it too and you can share it with Google reader.

    I want to use it in the respect to show faces of people that have signed on as a friend to my website. I believe showing faces of "friends" also adds relevancy to the site. Right now I got no one who has signed up so it looks empty. Obviously the more posts to my site and forum plus the more friends on GFC then the more popular it may be. I believe this to be the case with Facebook connect as well. Traffic, traffic, traffic:)

    Haven't tried it yet, I'm sure that it is pretty interesting, Obviously it will work well since Google normally has the most unique ideas.

    Sportso,

    FaceBook has some of the most traffic for social networking websites. One of their "games" had over 5 trillion comments / replys.
