I received an invitation yesterday, so I've explored this service immediately
could be used in Blogger?
We can't upload the .html files.
@solrac
It can be used in Blogger, you don't have to upload the files just skip that step.
It works perfectly, many thanks Moustafa ;)
only waiting for friends :))
this blog is real blog from google??
Still analyzing its functionality and effects...
but definitely, looking forward to setup on my website...
I'm a bit disappointed in the site you refer people to. Adding socialized widgets is all well and good, but how do I integrate it and its user authentication with existing members-only functions on a site?
I'm not asking you, I'm just saying that it's impossible to go to a help/faq section there. Maybe it exists after you "set up a site", but some of us would prefer to read some documentation before we start providing URLs and uploading code to our servers.
Hi, I really need some help please. I need to contact google as my page rank has been reduced to zero, however, I can't contact them as I can't verify my site - does anyone know what I should do?
thats a good idea..
I put it up on my web site but had to take it down because my web site several URLs pointing to it.
I hope this works out, multiple social networking sites is killing us.
That's really cool. I haven't heard this before. let me try this feature now.
Just plugged it into our Transformers (toy) collecting site (unicron.com). I can see this being super helpful and fun for our site. Now that we have it, I'm interested in seeing where it's progressing, and what new gadgets are coming. Is there a "friend connect" blog or anything we can subscribe to?
(I'd love to get on that testing list, too... ;)
can i use it with my blog
very nice extension..... i'll use it on my http://joomlacube.com letter...
thanks google!
Fantastic progression of the OpenSocial line. This is the kind of forward thinking we need in social media. I've outlined some ideas on the service, am developing a resource page, and have a gadget list already posted.
In my opinion, if you're a webmaster looking to integrate social solutions, give this beta a long look, it's on the right track.
It's work perfect like value chain seo
floorplanner.com now also uses FriendConnect check it out, we need members ;-)
thanks google!!
Dear Experts, I've had Friend Connect for a while now and I have not added one friend.. sob sob. What am I doing wrong. How do I know if I placed it correctly on my site? thanks penny at www.easytravelreport.com.
