I recently implemented Google Friend Connect here on the site. The most noticeable feature of this implemenation is the Google Friend Connect “Social Bar” along the bottom of the website. The Social Bar contains four features:

  1. Sign in to the Social Bar using your credentials (Google, AIM, Yahoo, and more). Signing in will enable the commenting feature (#3).
    Google Friend Connect Sign-in
  2. View recent activity on the site.
    Google Friend Connect Social Activity
  3. View current comments regarding the page you’re viewing as well as add a comment regarding the page you’re currently viewing.
    Google Friend Connect Comments
  4. View the members that are a part of the community already; see who is already interacting!
    Google Friend Connect Members

Feel free to join the community and interact with other members by commenting on pages and blog entries. If you have a technical support question, feel free to post it as a comment on the Technical Support page and I will do my best to answer it as soon as possible.

While you are at it, check out what WordPress has done for them:

Dylan Tucker’s Tuckered Out Films | Joyce Davis’ personal site

Also, check out the new website for North Country Grown Co-op which was also built on WordPress as a CMS (content management system). It does not use the blogging feature for which WordPress was originally built but WordPress allows for easy management of the site and its content.

Get started with WordPress.
