Google Friend Connect, Twitter and me
By Martin English | December 16, 2008
Google have announced today that users of Google Friend Connect are now able to connect their Twitter accounts to their Google accounts. This means that when you join a ‘Friend Connected’ site (like here, or BASIS of SAP, you’ll be able to connect with other Twitter friends that are members on that site.
I’m not a big fan of Facebook Connect, but I love the idea of being able to connect to other Twitter users on my favorite blogs. This seems like a great way to grow your network and start up conversations with like-minded individuals without sharing ALL of your personal details
A usefull feature for hardcore twitter fans is that Google Friend Connect lets you use your Twitter avatar and profile description. To add your Twitter friends, all you need to do is go to your Google Profile on a site that supports Google Friend Connect and click on “Add/Remove”.
You can add Friend Connect to your site by going to the Friend Connect home page.
