Loading ...Once again, Matt Cutts broke Google news for us. He introduced Google Friend Connect API at PubCon South in Austin, Texas and WebProNews has exclusive details in the above video.
Matt prefaced the announcement by explaining how we are all publishers now due to YouTube, Facebook, blogs, etc. He went on to say how spam should not be large concern because at this point in time, the focus should be primarily on creating good content. After considering those factors, Google released the Google Friend Connect API to help both publishers and users become more social.
Google Friend Connect API provides more participation, comments, interactions, and also less spam. A couple of people on Matt’s own team produced plugins for WordPress, Drupal, and phpBB.
Matt makes no claim of perfection on this and even strongly encourages others to create better plugins since they are all Open Source.
The bad thing about making people join your blog before posting a comment is obvious. Less interaction or comments.
It was very important to know the new Google Friend connect API.

BeingEarthly.com has just added Google Friend Connect! Try it out for fun!
That is some great news from Google. I can’t wait to try out their new API.
Sometimes you might want to have your own sign up though so you can control the data you get from people when they join your site or blog. Im guessing google isnt going to be sharing peoples personal details with the 3rd party sites when they log in with friend connect…
You really need to adjust the sound level on your page

It is way too intense especially when one opens it and the sound breaks the sound barrier. Please try turning it down and have consideration for others who want to browse the page but click out because they are not going to take time to figure out what to hit to turn the noise down.
get er done
This is really great news. Finding some problem in watching the videos clearly.
