Facebook is one of the most popular, best known social networking sites around and after the site has developed apps for different smart phones it was about time the whole thing went Live. Facebook announced at a developers conference that it would make Facebook information become available on other third-party sites, allowing its users to log in more easily and share with many more people their Facebook accounts.
The new service is called Facebook Connect and it focuses on users signing in to participating sites with their Facebook ID, which is usually associated with their real name. The Facebook Connect service is available starting from today, meaning that Facebook users can now share their pictures and experiences with so many more.
The new Facebook feature was first announced in May and has been, since then, in private beta testing. What is great about Facebook Connect is that users can bring back to the site everything they have accumulated on the third party sites. Another great thing is that any developer or site can join Facebook Connect, in this way becoming partners and letting users to use their Facebook account information on the respective sites.
This is for a general good of being able to have an almost universal signing in profile, making surfing on the net so much easier. Similar attempts have been tried by Google, signing in to Blogger is being done using a Gmail account, MySpace and, even, Yahoo.
Facebook Connect brings a new perspective on surfing the net, and as social networking sites become more and more popular, staying ahead through innovative services is the key.
