Google announced that it would be releasing Google Friend Connect this month. The idea behind Friend Connect is to give Webmasters and Blog Owners the tools needed to easily add social features to their sites. This is what Google announced:

“With Google Friend Connect (see http://www.google.com/friendconnect following this evening’s Campfire One), any website owner can add a snippet of code to his or her site and get social features up and running immediately without programming — picking and choosing from built-in functionality like user registration, invitations, members gallery, message posting, and reviews, as well as third-party applications built by the OpenSocial developer community.”

Google is really taking thing to the next level! I’ve searched the net for other providers of free social applications, and couldn’t find anything besides MyBlogLog.com

To all my blog readers, how interested are you in adding social features to your site? And if you are interested in doing this, what features specifically would you like to add first?

Personally, I want to add a community on this blog where people express their opinions with an identity attached to it. That way, any comments you guys make, your comment could link directly to your profile where other readers could learn more about you, what you are doing on the internet, and easily access links to your sites.

Comments should be a personal thing, and with the addition of pictures and profiles, we could really see a whole new level of blogging evolve.

Let me know what you guys think.
