Have you tried the new Facebook Connect feature?

You can now associate your Facebook account with TGO and use it as a single-sign in.

Look for the logo at the top of the screen.

Yup, but what are the benefits for doing it?

That's what I was wondering. I saw it up there, but want more info before proceeding. I trust TGO. I don't trust facebook as much!

I guess the more important question is, if you connect and you don't like it, can you disconnect from Facebook?

From the developer's blog...

Starting with the 4.0.3 release, vBulletin will feature single sign-on integration with Facebook Connect. What this means is that, should you choose to enable this feature, users of your forum will be able to connect their vBulletin account with their Facebook account, and then log-in using the Facebook Connect button. It also provides the option of simplifying the registration process, so that users can register on your forums by simply logging in through Facebook Connect. By default, Facebook Connect single sign-on and auto-registration will be disabled.

Going forward, we have many plans for expanding the capabilities of the Facebook Connect feature set. However, for 4.0.3 we have decided to keep it simple and only implement this basic functionality. We did this because, in addition to adding more Facebook Connect features, we also hope to implement additional log-in integrations such as OpenID, Google, Yahoo, etc. (similar to the vBNexus product). And the current implementation of FBConnect provides a framework, both in the code and in the UI, for moving forward on these plans.

You should also have the ability now to link posts/threads to your Facebook "like" status thingy.

I still don't know how to use the "likey thingey" that David was so eloquently talking about.
