Welcome to Facebook Connect
Facebook Connect is the next evolution of Facebook Platform -- enabling you to integrate the power of Facebook Platform into your own site.
As a developer, you can add social context to your site in four main ways:
- Identity. Seamlessly connect the user's Facebook account and information with your site
- Friends. Bring a user's Facebook friends into your site. You can even link friends that have existing accounts.
- Discovery. Publish information back into their friends' News Feeds on Facebook.
- Privacy. Bring dynamic privacy to your site using XFBML.
Additionally, Facebook Connect brings the full power and flexibility of Facebook Platform, including the REST API and FQL.
