I'm running FB Connect on my site!

Comments can be published to News Feed. We have community features (i.e. view FB friends on the site) but they're a little buggy. The link is:

Eric, excellent title here and I agree with your conclusion 100%: Facebook will be mostly appealing to websites because of the additional (and powerful) distribution channel it will offer and I think the webmasters will just need some time to see what functionality they are really willing to offer to their visitors and but no one will want to refuse the free marketing on Facebook.

Makes sense. Any examples of companies and metrics showing their success with it so far?

Eric,

For the institutions we've been working with, the friend interaction feature isn't as important as bringing site activity back into the Facebook news feed "conversation." Our clients are seeing this as a win-win even with only single signon and newsfeed propagation - users don't have to remember lots of credentials and when they take action on a site it shows up in Facebook. Every client we've shown Connect to, wants it and wants it now.

This concept will kill sites like friendfeed and other aggregation sites
