Facebook Login

[Sam1]

Do you use a Facebook login on your website, blog or forum? Do you think these logins encourage more signups?

I didnt want to use it, and wont use it just because I am to lazy to set it up. But its a good way to get users that are lazy to join your forum

I believe the Facebook login encourage more people to get into a website but, registrations?

It depends on the software or script your site is built on. I have installed a simple login script in my main site (which is still a work in progress) but while I found that people can sign in with easiness, the script shows me the Facebook name of the people signing in with a FB account, but they don't appear as registered users to my site, nor I have control over their profiles or a way to push them into fill out a local profile.

This is not really good to me because the goal is having new members with real interest to be part of my project, not people that find handy a Facebook login for nosy activities

I don't personally use Facebook login, but I know people who do. I don't really want to connect ALL my personal information to a forum, even if it's for convenient sign-up/login. I'm more fond of the ability to login with a twitter account since it's not necessarily connected to my address and such.
