Google Meets Twitter : Google Friend Connect Integrates Twitter

Google Meets Twitter

Google has just announced a new development, that Google Friend Connect integrates Twitter, the famous micro-blogging social network. Now you can sign into friend connect sites with your Twitter ID. Friend Connect also supports IDs from Google, Yahoo, AIM, and OpenID.

According to Google, integration with Twitter is an example of the improvements that will be promoted in Friend Connect, bringing new social features to the most diverse places on the internet.

Google Friend Connect to Twitter

If any of the people you follow on Twitter are also members of the third-party site, they will automatically be added as your friends.

Friend Connect’s goal is to facilitate an open social web and makes it simple for people to instantly interact with one another on the sites that they already love to visit. Additionally, websites that use Friend Connect become OpenSocial containers, capable of running applications created by the OpenSocial developer community.
