Redesign and Google Friend Connect.

So. As you can see, I redesigned my site and added Google Friend Connect! Instead of making one from scratch I took the wonder Google Chrome theme I got from WordPress and edited it here and there.

I love how it looks. :)

I’ve been browsing the web looking for comments on the whether to use Facebook Connect or Google Friend Connect and I’ve stumbled upon this post at ReadWriteWeb. It stipulates to me why I’ve opted for Google. It boils down to one fact. The potential for growth and new uses for OpenSocial is huge. The userbase (for OpenID) is also much much larger than Facebook’s.

It also ties with the book I’m reading. It is Wikinomics by Dan Tapscott and Anthony Williams. If you haven’t read it, it is about how collaboration through the internet is changing the economy. One of the biggest arguments is having a truly open “mindset”. Using the world as a resource, the opportunity to exceed Facebook Connect will only be a matter of time. Hope that makes sense.

On other notes, any respectable web entrepeneur should have twitter (which I got). My first “proper” Facebook application should also be showing its face soon.
