Not quite sure why you should be using Google Friend Connect (GFC for short)?
- Adding yourself to a GFC gadget, allows you a quick and easy way to keep track of the blogs you enjoy.
- It allows you to network with like minded people.
- You will often get a return visit to your site, and grow your GFC community.
- New features allow the site owner (such as me) to better track your likes and dislikes through questions and surveys, so we can bring you more relevant info to you over time.
- We can become mutual friends through Google Friend Connect.
- After we become mutual friends (and are both Gmail users), we are added to each others contact list, Gtalk, and Gchat.
- You will be given the option to sign up to that sites newsletter.
- Bonus: Using Google Friend Connect is one of the major pieces in the new Google Social Network, and is becoming the new way to conduct business online.

I think I might have to use some of this post.
We have a few people we are under the influence of that I can see. Alex S. and Chris L. They are excellent mentors.
