Facebook Connect

Finally, a new breakthrough with something that could be quite useful if used the right way.

View this report here from Mark Roff at the F8 announcement by Mark Zuckerberg.

The summary of the change here is that if the user gives the website permission a 3rd Party website, like MyKindaPrices.com can work with info coming from the users Facebook profile and display it on the website.

Another example is a website that does restaurant reviews, if you view that website there could be a 'Friends Fav' tab on the side with reviews on restaurants from your friends on Facebook which should hopefully be trustworthy.

This is a development that I see could really make Facebook the only player in the social web, I don't see major websites having 3/4 different tabs on the side to account for every Social website... Then again if Facebook adopted Google's OpenSocial it could work very well. We'll see.

For now its amazing to see that Facebook has reached 90million users after only having 24million 14months ago. WOW, is all I can say.
