Facebook Integration

[hamish]

We now have the ability to allow users to link their KW forum account with their Facebook accounts. What does everyone think?

While it's a good idea, I personally wouldn't use it, so voted no. Reason being that while I don't particularly care on this forum, I've used this alias on multiple forums where I don't particularly want my facebook profile directly linked to the name

[verissimus]

What would the purpose be? Would it allow me to view KW forum thread updates directly on my Facebook newsfeed? If so, it's a good idea. But I'd like to do it without letting people form a direct link between my username and my Facebook profile. 'No' for now, but would be willing to reconsider.

It would be totally optional, of course. The biggest benefit is for new users who can register on the forums just by logging on through a Facebook Connect button. There are further features in the pipeline, but the linking is the first step.

Voted yes. If it's optional why not link them?

i've already joined KENDO WORLD FORUMITES on facebook. why not.

[hathandir]

Anything to give Kendo more exposure is a good thing, I think.

ugh, facebook connect is dangerous, look at how most blog that started using it disabled it in less than a month, it just allows easier access for trolls and other undesirables. DISLIKE, IGNOR! (stan, poke your grandma!)

[sirius1906]

Good point, can i change my vote?

Face book, is that a book of portraits? To each his own as they say.
