The social networking giant moves on two fronts to extend its reach.
Facebook has come a long, long way from a social network limited to college students. Today, Facebook announced Facebook Connect Wizard, a major enhancement to Facebook Connect, its tool designed to integrate Facebook with other Web sites.
The news follows last night's announcement of another release, Translations for Facebook Connect. Translations is a free tool designed to help simplify the process of translating the content on a Web site into any of the over 65 languages Facebook supports.
Facebook said the new Connect Wizard streamlines the process of implementing Facebook Connect -- which lets users port their account information, photos and links to friends from Facebook to other sites -- down to three easy steps.
The company also released Playground for Facebook Connect, which provides sample code for adding profile pictures, usernames and friends to your Web site.
