Bring your orkut friendships with you as you travel the web with Google Friend Connect

Posted on 7:27 AM by Unknown
Today marks the international launch of Google Friend Connect, making the product available in 47 new languages, including Portuguese, Hindi, and Spanish. Friend Connect provides a way for website owners to easily add social features to their sites, creating a unified online social experience across diverse sites from around the web.

What's more, Friend Connect is integrated with orkut, allowing you to bring your orkut friendships with you to a host of participating sites. Login to Friend Connect using your orkut credentials, link in your orkut account, and you'll be saved the trouble of having to upload a new photo, create a new profile or re-establish all of the orkut friendships you've already made.



For those of you who have your own websites, Friend Connect makes it possible for anyone to join your site and discover other members. Instead of requiring complex and/or time intensive programming, Friend Connect also offers a catalog of social gadgets that you can add to your site by simply copying and pasting a few snippets of code. Visit the gadget gallery to find gadgets available in your language.





The orkut team was so pleased to hear about Friend Connect's international launch that we decided to add Friend Connect to the official orkut blogs. If you haven't noticed already, you can now follow the blog, and see which of your orkut friends are avid blog readers as well.

If you're a site owner and are interested in adding Friend Connect to your site, head to google.com/friendconnect. If you're a regular Friend Connect user, just login using your orkut account information and start taking your orkut network with you around the web!
