I saw on the JS 3 admin panel now it offeres JFCB as an option! awesome!

We're you aware of it? it's a shared work? have you been contacted? (if you can answer of course)

It would be great if you're offering the integration directly ^^

Also, you know if Jlinked will be added too?

And on a side note? what about the twitter and g+ projects? I'm anxious!! ;)

Keep the good work! Congratulations on the new site!

Johnny,
Thanks for getting in touch. Yes, the JomSocial crew and SourceCoast have been working together to add a much easier integration path for using JFBConnect for 'enhanced' Facebook integration over the basic Facebook integration in JomSocial. We haven't announced it yet as there's still more to be done.

On the JomSocial side, that option will mainly just show our JFBConnect "Login With Facebook" button wherever JomSocial would have shown that button otherwise.

For us, we have a *lot* that we're in the process of doing. Rich activity stream posts (currently, we only push text updates to a user's FB wall), much more Open Graph tags and Action integration, and many other things. It won't all be there the moment 3.0 comes out, but due to some cooperation and the promotion that JomSocial is giving to us even just by that setting (and hopefully more :) ), there's no doubt that we'll be sanding off any rough edges in our integration and really making things shine.

As for Google+ and Twitter, it's definitely coming. We're planning to have the first release with some additional integration out in June. It won't be as full fledged as Facebook integration (that's taken years), but it should be a great start.

Regarding JLinked, that's an unknown. There's a few options we've been discussing, especially since support for G+ and Twitter is coming and would be welcome by JomSocial, but I don't have anything I can really state on that because I don't really know :)

I hope that helps explain and thanks for the compliments on the new site. We're hunting down some minor issues that are being reported, but in general, it's gone very smooth... and I, who looks at the site every day, am ecstatic! I was a bit tired of the old site.

Thanks,
Alex
