A new Google Friend Connect plugin is now available for Wordpress, and of course this site has been upgraded to use it too so you can play around with it right away. Adding the ability to use popular accounts (Google, Yahoo, AIM, Netlog & every OpenID provider) means people no longer have to go through a seperate registration process on your blog, which really takes the pain out of using your identity online, add to that the ability to distribute comments back to social networks, and you’ve got a pretty interesting solution!
The announcement:
Strengthen your blog’s community: Google Friend Connect now available for Wordpress
And the installation guide is available at: http://code.google.com/p/wp-gfc/wiki/Installation
