Last week, Google released their Google Friend Connect product, which has been said to make non-social websites offer social networking capabilities. The new product has also been advertised to increase the traffic level of a particular website, thus enabling it to generate a higher revenue. It appears that new product made Facebook, the social networking site, block Google access, citing privacy concerns as the main reason in doing so.

Following this issue, Facebook's CEO has declared that he wants to sit down with Google and find a way forward out of this predicament. "We want to talk to Google about this and see if there's a way we can make it workm" declared Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook's CEO. He added that part of the issue is due to the fact that users who are granted access to Google's product might make Facebook users compromise their personal information. This is unacceptable for the social networking site, as its own system allows users to know exactly whom they are sharing their information with.

What Google's new product actually brings is a means by which a user of a social networking website can take their data to other websites. This will most certainly increase the traffic level of a specific site, as users are offered a way by which they can interact with other users. If Google's product is successful, we are going to see a new side of the Internet, one in which almost everybody is interconnected.

Facebook's CEO made it clear that the social networking website wants Google as a partner and will try to solve things out, as soon as possible. "But Google's a big player in the space and they make good things and our goal is to work with them to figure this out" said Zuckerberg. He also wanted to remind us that Facebook Connect, a product similar to Google's Friend Connect service, has been available since 2006.
