Good news! Thanks to the Facebook Connect platform, and with help from Sociable, I’m happy to say that you can now be a member of Good Plum – just by logging in with Facebook!
On the right hand side of every page (under “Be a Good Plum”), you’ll see a new box that asks you to login or join using Facebook. Just click the button – and as long as you already have a Facebook account – simply log in so you can connect with other Good Plum readers! I think it’ll be a great way to more easily bring like-minded individuals together.
Another benefit of using the Facebook Connect platform is that all of the comments you write on Good Plum will use your Facebook information – so there’s no need to fill out your name and email every time you write a comment! Just login with Facebook, and you’re all set.
There are still some bugs we’re working out while we start this, but for the most part everything works. Just shoot us a comment on this post and let us know if you find anything funky. Depending on your operating system and/or browser, funny things can happen that can’t always be tested for!
Enjoy the new ways to connect on Good Plum, and make sure you become a fan of our Facebook application right over here.
Till next time!

Oh, nice. I was looking for a WP Plugin for FB Connect. Will give it a try :-)
how did you get the commenting to work?
@Richard – I’m not sure what you mean how I got the commenting to work. If there’s something specific you’re trying to do, I can try to help – otherwise you could also check out http://www.sociable.es/ and see if they can help you out over there.
Good luck!
Hey Elliott
I was thinking about this facebook connect thingy and went in and signed in when I signed out from the back end the script was strong and just wanted to keep reloading the page :)
You can see what I thought about your blog on Stumble
Just wanted to wish you and everyone a Happy Holidays
You should be proud of all your hard work Peace
John, thanks a ton for your Stumble comment! Also, thanks for commenting here. A fix was issued today for the Facebook plugin I’m using, and I just implemented it… should be a little better now.
I was wrong – there is still something screwed up with the Facebook script. I’m trying to work with the developer to figure it out – if it’s not fixed soon I’ll probably have to deactivate the script until it gets better.
