A battle has been brewing for months now: Google and Facebook both want to be the social layer that sits on top of every site on the Internet. So far, at least in mindshare, Facebook has been winning this battle with Facebook Connect. Google's offering, Friend Connect, is the sibling that gets no respect. But that could change starting today with some new features and functionality.
There are actually a number of new or tweaked features in Friend Connect, but the overall gist of the changes is that they will allow site owners to offer a more personalized social experience to their visitors, while making it easier for visitors to connect with each other. "Normally we do one feature at a time, but this is a set of features," Friend Connect product manager Mussie Shore tells us, noting that this is a special launch to his team.
