I’ve recently had a look at Facebook API for developer and my attention was immediately captured by Facebook Connect.

In fact, I’ve been looking at Single Sign On (SSO) solution for multiple portals for quite some time. It seems like Facebook Connect might just be the holy grail. Check it out at http://developers.facebook.com/connect.php.

Imagine having Facebook users to register for your site and set up a profile using their Facebook account. These days, almost everyone has a Facebook account. With Facebook Connect, you eliminate the hassle of the normal registration at your new sites. And according to Facebook, using Facebook Connect will increase your registration rate by 15%!

For those setting up bigger websites that require member registration, such as a community site, game site etc., integrating Facebook Connect is definitely a great idea! I’ll be looking closely into this and feedback the result here.
