Some cool new features coming this weekend

So I know a lot of you frown on setting up another account on SB Nation so you can comment, add fan shots, and even add fan posts.  Well that will get much easier this weekend as SB Nation rolls out their integration with Facebook, here are the high level details:

* New users will be able to signup for an SB Nation account using Facebook Connect

 * Existing users will be able to connect their SB Nation account with their Facebook account

 * SB Nation users connected to Facebook will be able to login with their Facebook username + password

 * SB Nation users connected to Facebook will be able to post headlines, thumbnails and snippets from their Stories, FanPosts, FanShots and Comments to their personal Facebook wall

 * When a user connects to SB Nation via Facebook, we check to see if any of their Facebook friends are on SB Nation already. If we do find some and those friends haven't already connected to Facebook, we give the user the option of sending the friends a connect request.

 * When a user connects to SB Nation via Facebook, their identity will not be displayed. They have complete control over what is shared.

I am going to keep the facebook fan page going but this will let you get even more updates and be more interactive with my blog as well as others on the SB Nation.
