I just signed up to participate in the rollout of Google’s Friend Connect beta. For those of you who may already be familiar with Facebook Connect, this is along those same lines in that it will allow website visitors to connect and interact with websites using their Google, Yahoo, AIM, or OpenID account, very similar as to how the Facebook Connect platform is designed.
The advantage to this platform is that it allows visitors to your website to login and interact with the click of their mouse. In addition, the software itself is pretty much plug and play from what I have gathered in that you just add a snippet of code and you are setup and ready to go. Hopefully I will be selected for the preview release of this software, if that happens I will for sure post updates down the road.
