Wordpress as Everything

The "Community Facebook Connect Plugin" is a Wordpress plugin that gives immediate Facebook Connect functionality to your blog. It was written by Jesse Stay, and released under the GPL.

It requires you to set up your own app for your blog under the Facebook Developers site (just set your callback URL to your own website’s URL), and you must take your application key and enter it into the admin section. Only developers of the Facebook app itself can login through Facebook Connect until Facebook launches (one more advantage Facebook has over us developers – they know when they are launching, and therefore know how much time they have to develop these things, another reason to leave it to us developers in order to keep it fair).

Complete integration of your Wordpress blog and Facebook, using Facebook Connect. Build a tribe/community around your blog: Facebook login, automatic user registration, send comments to Facebook feed, invite your Facebook friends.

Access the blog (login) with your Facebook credentials where facebook validates the username without asking for the password necessary to access the blog/website.

The user does not need to register in the blog because thanks to the plugin the user can utilize his complete profile information he already edited in Facebook. This is tremendously useful as the user does not have to register and create profiles over and over again! The blog can now utilize the shared user profile information for customization and statistics in our Wordpress Blog. The plugin creates a Wordpress Blog user with the exact same facebook profile information which then could be edited by the user if he likes so.

It is possible to obtain your friends/contacts from facebook and to generate invitations to join our Blog/Site.
One way of promoting the site using the so powerful and marvellous word-of-mouth.

You additionally can access to a list of existing members of the blog/site.

The users activity in the blog/site such as posts can be sent to Facebooks mini-feed of the users profile and is then visible in facebook in his lifestream.

You can show your last visits to the blog including the users photo that have accessed the page.
