Google Friend Connect Adds Twitter
Google Friend Connect was made available (in beta) to all webmasters last week. But most of these types of social efforts that enable portability among sites/networks have been missing one very important network. Until now.
Twitter has joined Google Friend Connect. Now if you're using the technology to add social components to your website, Twitter users can sign in with their ID and check to see if any of their followers are also using your site.
Anyone using Google Friend Connect yet? Tell us about your experience in the comments - and if adding Twitter will be a boost to the experience.

We added Google Friend Connect to our website last week. I think the introduction of Twitter is the best step forward and I can't wait to connect with my Twitter friends this way.

Okay this seems only to be the start. It has to be, as this first offering from Google has really little to offer. Watch and see, they are too good at dominating a marketing, any market, they decide to enter.
