Official Google Blog announced today that Google Friend Connect integrated Twitter as well. Not too long ago I told @Scobleizer (Robert Scoble) that Twitter might beat Facebook in traffic by 2010, he thinks that I drank something that day. Well if you look at the main stream media and all the web apps for twitter I am very positive that Twitter will be at least have 70% of traffic what Facebook and MySpace today have (50-80 Millions visits)

To help you and your Twitter network stay connected no matter where you are on the web, we’re excited to announce that Google Friend Connect
has integrated with Twitter. This means that when you join a Friend
Connected site, you can choose to use your Twitter profile, discover
people you follow on Twitter who are also members of the site, and
quickly tweet that you have found a cool website.

    This is good news for Google Friend Connect, the websites that have opted to use it, and the members of those sites. It’s also good for Twitter as the service will likely pick up new users from it. And with Twitter’s Facebook app currently not working, that’s an advantage to Google Friend Connect. So far I like what I’m seeing with it, but I’d like to see more useful gadgets.

    Another one bites the dust….if you’re FB Connect!

    What do you think about the other side to Google Friend Connect equation….Facebook Connect? Have a post all ready on it’s benefits…but still have a little trouble seamlessly integrating it. <> But I have integrated elsewhere and looks and feels great! Talk about instant blog community!

    @NikNik: I have experienced Gconnect and so far not much satisfied. Yeah social network gurus can use it but most people wont..I think it’s another google app that will eventually expire ;)
