Socialize This Site!
With the advent of universal social applications such as Google Friend Connect, Facebook Connect, OpenID, etc., we have seen more websites in the last year or so become part of a large community some call the Social Web. I know many of my readers are from all over the world and already on one social network or another. Most people have a Google account.
So I decided to add Google Friend Connect functionality to Knockoff Report. What does it mean to you? It will not affect the static content of the site, but it will give you the ability to claim yourself as someone giving me moral support (best reason) and also to give you the ability to comment on posts more easily. Click it. You know you want to.
