I am currently testing http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/faux-facebook-connect/ ( a plugin to allow people to comment via facebook login ). Is this something we would want to allow here?

Earth.org now connects to Facebook. Just one password, one username, one click.
Earth.org has released a new feature: Earth.org travellers can now log onto http://www.earth.org with their Facebook account. Joining our Earth.org community has never been so easy.
With one password, one username and one click. Facebook Connect matters. It is changing how we integrate our daily lives with Facebook and throughout the web. For millions of people, Facebook has become their single, most important online identity.Earth.org now enables every user to take their Facebook identity with them. Earth.org travellers can now create their new account or log onto http://www.earth.org with absolute convenience – simply by connecting with their Facebook account.
And that is how it works.- You are new at Earth.org? There is no need to create a new account on Earth.org. Just click on “Login” and you will see the button “Facebook Connect”. Enter your email and password that you use for Facebook and you can start exploring Earth.org.
- You already have an Earth.org account? Log in with your Facebook password and email and we will check your existing account. You can then log in with your Facebook account every time you visit http://www.earth.org.
Please note: When you log out of Earth.org using Facebook Connect, you will be logged out of Facebook as well. Your privacy settings that are provided on Facebook are retained on Earth.org.
Many thanks to our web application developer Emran Hasan from Bangladesh, who has realised Facebook Connect for Earth.org.

Active social networking links are good. Advertised in-active links are not so good.

ok, one more question: how will that fb connect look like?
- login at earth.org with your fb account?
- when you add sthing in the travel guide, will that automatically appear on your status updates on fb? (Teresa B. added a new restaurant in Hinterstoder to the Earth.org travel guide)-
emran
this is planned:
1. login at earth.org with your fb account
2. after loggin in the user can
a) create a new earth.org account, or
b) connect with an existing earth.org account3. when updated on travel guide, it will post on user’s stream on facebook. for this we will need to ask for permission, just like any standard facebook connect integration (ex: digg)
at this moment, #1 and #2 is almost ready for testing. will take on #3 after them.
